Criticism by a large group of linguists of gender practices in public service broadcasting has caused a stir. The television advisory board of the ZDF informed the initiator of the appeal, Fabian Payr, author of the book “Von Menschen und Menschen*innen: 20 good reasons to stop gendering”, at the beginning of August, “that when using the glottic stop/speech pause or gender star/ gender gaps there is no violation of program guidelines”. The committee did not respond to the scientific arguments: “The benchmark can only be the guidelines applicable to ZDF, no calls or appeals, even if they are from well-known scientists.”

The Mainz linguist Damaris Nübling, professor of historical linguistics and author of a new brochure on “genus and gender” attacked the signers of the appeal with particular vehemence.
