About a quarter of all Europeans profess to views that are anti-Semitic in the fields of business, politics and media, a new survey by CNN has found.

The poll, conducted by ComRes, surveyed over 7,000 adults online in Great Britain, France, Germany, Poland, Hungary, Sweden and Austria during the month of September.

Few participants, only 10 percent overall, professed an unfavorable attitude toward Jews. That number rose to 15 percent in Poland and 19 percent in Hungary.

However, to better assess whether Europeans hold anti-Semitic perceptions, the survey also asked participants whether they thought Jews had too much influence in certain realms.
