Det här läser man om Tysk media i dag. Inget förvånande och säkert fullt applicerbart på Sverige.
"
You couldn't ask for a better reader than Isolde Beck. She has had subscriptions to the Süddeutsche Zeitung, Badische Neueste Nachrichten and SPIEGEL for many years. And as a retiree, she takes the time to
thoroughly read through the newspapers and magazine."
"But her relationship with the media has become troubled in recent weeks. She has the feeling that the "news is being suppressed" and that journalists are
no longer allowed to "articulate certain things." Beck has stopped believing what the journalists write."

"We can no longer assume that there is a democracy or even freedom of expression in this country anymore," she wrote, "and the media are complicit, for the most part, perhaps out of reluctance to alienate interviewees, or
perhaps because it appears to be gratifying to manipulate readers or to make fun of them, however you want to put it."
Hårda ord, läsarna börjar bli förbannade när journalisterna förlöjligar dem genom naiva osanna reportage
"A more rancorous and aggressive tone is also spreading in Internet forums and letters to the editor. The problem is that
rage is turning into hate, and hate into violence."
En tickande bomb?
"The rage, hatred and hostility are not just being expressed verbally anymore. Journalists are badgered and berated, hit with flagpoles and attacked with pepper spray."
"Rolf Christoffer also vented his displeasure with the media in a letter to his local paper, the Mindener Tageblatt, writing that he had "valued and enjoying reading it, as a small but decent regional newspaper." But now, he added, he heard that the editor-in-chief was tolerating a "muzzle code, in his rush to show obedience to the government."
"Are you being paid by political parties or by your readers?" Christoffer asked. If it turned out that such arrangements had indeed existed with the state of North Rhine-Westphalia or the federal government, "I will immediately cancel my subscription to the daily newspaper I have respected for so long, the Mindener Tageblatt, and will get my information solely from Internet forums."
Det kunde vara i Sverige...
"Vollmert subscribes to Süddeutsche Zeitung, Iserlohner Kreisanzeiger and the newsweekly Focus. He buys a copy of SPIEGEL at the newsstand every Saturday. "There must be a reason why the media are losing circulation," he says. "The average Joe has a keen sense for when he's being taken for a ride." Vollmert accuses the media of having lost sight of the interests and concerns of its audience. The teacher shortage, poor hygiene in hospitals and a growing number of burglaries -- journalists ignore all of these issues, says Vollmert, because they have blockaded themselves in their ivory towers. "They don't listen to what's happening down below."
Man undrar hur länge "Den nya Unionen" håller?
"Stefan Raue, the executive editor of MDR, a public broadcaster covering much of the eastern German states, including Saxony, says this about his relationship with all groups that accuse the media of being liars: "We do not accept their declaration of war."
Men Tysk media har förstått att ett krig emot Media har inletts, även om de inte accepterar krigsförklaringen.
Mycket mycket mer text i artikeln, hoppas att det inspirerar de gode i tråden.
