THE UK media took a somewhat muted approach to their coverage of the Supreme Court referendum hearing, with barely any of the Scottish Parliamentary lobby taking the trip to London.
Despite the historic court case, many London editions of the UK’s biggest newspapers dedicated less than 400 words to the indyref showdown that took place over two days in the UK’s highest court.
It was the first time that the Lord Advocate in Scotland had ever made a reference of this kind, but most of the focus and headlines coming from the media pertained to the UK Government’s case after James Eadie KC spent the majority of his time arguing that the court should throw the reference out.
