The Guardian has run with the Brexit art preferences story I mentioned below last week. But alas it doesn't question the dodgy research behind the results. There's too much of this unquestioning media response to duff art 'research' like this. Another example is the 'Banksy is Britain's favourite painting' story that did the rounds last year, which soon became hard fact, and in turn helped fuel the recent shredding hoo ha at Sotheby's.
