tells a story of a German journalist posing as migrant who was posing as a worker for two years.
But it was only a pose.
Opera tells story of German journalist who posed as migrant worker for two years – Docu-opera explores encounters and ethics of Günter Wallraff’s undercover work in 1980s, which he now describes as an existential necessity.
While still holding on to the chicken.
Germany rejects US censorship claims in human rights report – The report itself has been accused of political bias, with the US softening criticism of Israel and El Salvador. Germany rejected the report saying it has “a very high level of freedom of expression.”
“There is no censorship in Germany.”
That means staging, enactment, orchestration.
This Gaza photographer stages Hamas propaganda – Emaciated children, desperate mothers, and people begging for food with empty pots: these photos from Gaza circulate around the world. They are moving millions of people and influencing politics worldwide.
However, research by the Süddeutsche Zeitung newspaper now calls these images into question: Are some of the pictures from Gaza deliberately staged—and part of a propaganda strategy by Hamas terrorists?
The hunger is (almost always) real – but the images are often not entirely so. For example, a widely circulated photo recently showed desperate people in front of a food distribution point on a truck. Opposite them: photographer Anas Zayed Fteiha, a freelance “journalist” working on behalf of the Turkish news agency Anadolu.
Possible problem: The scene, also captured by other photographers, shows mainly adult men waiting for food—and getting it.
That means mostly peaceful protests.
I’m not kidding. That’s the international media language, I guess. Does somebody press a button somewhere to distribute this nonsense because they all mimic the same thing.
Mostly peaceful protests in LA: Trump warns of “city on fire” – and sends more soldiers.
According to city officials, the predominantly peaceful protests only affect a very small area. Nevertheless, Trump is sending another 2000 National Guard soldiers.
That means almost half.
As in “almost half of Germans are in favor of banning the AfD, according to a survey.” And this means, of course, that the majority of Germans are against banning the AfD.
Almost half of Germans in favor of banning the AfD, according to survey – 61% of Germans consider the AfD to be a right-wing extremist party. According to a representative survey, 48% want it to be banned.
All those hundreds of thousands protesting against the “CDU-AfD collaboration?” That must have been a misunderstanding or something.
German election: CDU still leads in the polls – The conservative Christian Democrats haven’t sustained major damage despite having accepted support from the Alternative for Germany. But fewer people now trust chancellor hopeful Friedrich Merz not to veer to the right.
Are we having a “Germany First!” yet?
There’s lots of snow and ice in Germany right now. In the winter OMG (this is where you say “but weather isn’t climate”)!
Why wasn’t the government prepared for this?
Germany braces for extreme weather and disruptions – Forecasters warned of treacherous conditions that could cause flight and other delays. Meanwhile the UK and US are also dealing with severe wintry conditions.
It’s just not their thing.
Musk causes uproar for backing Germany’s far-right party ahead of key elections – Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk caused uproar after backing Germany’s far-right party in a major newspaper ahead of key parliamentary elections in the Western European country, leading to the resignation of the paper’s opinion editor in protest.
Germany is to vote in an early election on Feb. 23 after Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s three-party governing coalition collapsed last month in a dispute over how to revitalize the country’s stagnant economy.
Uh-oh. If “Russian disinformation is growing in Germany…”
Then German state media disinformation providers are going to have to crank it up a notch. No prob. We’re on it already.
Russian disinformation is growing in Germany – Russia is flooding Germany with more disinformation than ever, officials warn. Analysts say this tactic is helping pro-Kremlin narratives increasingly seep into the country’s politics.
“We see that this strategy is gradually achieving its goals, and the public debate in Germany is increasingly shifting in a direction that serves the Kremlin’s interests.”
