Mr Madel, what you have been annoyed this week in the media the most?
About the reporting on the attack in Strasbourg. “Terror on the Christmas market”, “Terror in the Advent” – the headlines could not have been dramatic enough. Probably there are few visitors of the Christmas market, was asked by reporters whether he was now also afraid of the sausage. What’s the point? Why do we journalists the PR business of the terrorists, instead of telling objectively what it is: A terrible crime, sympathy with the Victims, a hard criminal that is sought and provided. At 3500 fatalities per annum each, rising in the morning, in the car, alive, more dangerous than the mulled wine drinkers at the Alexanderplatz.
What have you been happy?
Yes, an Interview with Marianne Birthler in the “mirror”. It was about sexual Assault in the Stasi hohenschönhausen memorial and the controversial dismissal of the Director Hubertus Knabe. Birthler is now working as a trusted person in the memorial, and defends the expulsion Knabes. The journalists will be asking critical questions, give your Interviewee anything, even bias. But Birthlers arguments are convincing. I understand why it can be for a boy no back to Hohenschönhausen.
What website do you recommend?
ocean College.eu. A page that can be addictive, at least if you find sailing exciting and frontal teaching boring. A Startup from Berlin sends back a three-master with Pubescent once across the Atlantic and back. A sailing classroom, the perfect preparation for the great journey of life.
