Recently “Tageschau” and “Tagestemen” caused a real scandal. The most important news programs on German television spread unfiltered propaganda from the terrorist militia Hamas, according to which an Israeli rocket had hit a hospital in Gaza and was responsible for the deaths of 500 civilians. It now appears clear that it was in fact a stray rocket launched by radical Islamists and that the number of victims was greatly exaggerated.
ZDF presenter Andrea “Kiwi” Kievel (58) then sharply criticized her colleagues at the public broadcaster. “Terrorists and murderers should never serve as sources,” he said, accusing Tagschau’s 150-strong editorial team of being blind in one eye.
The blindness seems to have extended to the editorial offices of the Norddeutscher Rundfunk (NDR), which is also part of the ARD. A concert and new record by scandal rapper “Disarstar” (29) was favorably advertised there. The author claims: “The musician wants everyone in society to be better off”.
This contribution also includes old songs of the Scandal rapper. Sample: “This is a time for radicalism. Springers were confiscated, FDP members were thrown out”. Several more witty lines of text follow. In his song “Free Word” “Disasterstar” demands: “Death to the Zionists”. This is not only unbelievable given the current terror of the Hamas barbarians in Israel.
There was great excitement after the broadcast: “What is tolerated here is incredible. How can the NDR allow this,” it posted, or: ”How can such texts be allowed?” FDP politician Gert Vollmann wrote on Twitter: “This can no longer be true. What is your problem NDR?”
However, according to his own assessment, everything is perfect for those responsible for the license fee broadcaster: “The statements are covered by artistic freedom,” he summarizes.
