Marc Hopf — Germany's Top News Magazine Scrambles to Restore Lost Traffic from Anti-Russian Bias (Spiegel)

  • Spiegel's online readership is down nearly 20% from October 2014, a result of the magazine's heavy anti-Russian bias over the Ukraine conflict.
  • Editor in chief Florian Harms writes a letter to readers trying to restore confidence, but only succeeds, in humorous Teutonic fashion, in making himself look ridiculous.
  • If this guy had the slightest sense of personal or professional honor, he would resign in disgrace. (He doesn't, and he won't)
  • German journalism is in serious crisis (that's a good thing).
