🎙️ Our latest podcast episode is now available! In an age where news and information have become an integral part of everyday life, questions surrounding media responsibility, objectivity, editorial decision-making, and political influence are more relevant than ever. As traditional and digital media continue to shape public discourse, understanding how news is produced has become increasingly important. 📰 In this episode, journalist and author Alexander Teske joins Dr. Antonia Baraniuk, PhD in History from Chemnitz University of Technology and Visiting Fellow at our Institute, for an in-depth discussion on the inner workings of Germany’s most-watched and most prestigious news programme, Tagesschau. The conversation explores newsroom structures, editorial culture, and the political dynamics that can influence journalism behind the scenes. 🔍 The discussion also addresses Teske’s criticism of what he describes as the growing “tabloidization” of news coverage, raising broader questions about the future of public-service media and the challenges facing contemporary journalism.
