TW wrote that a group of journalists and politicians he referred to as "woke" repeatedly complains about him on Bluesky while simultaneously publishing posts on Twitter, even though they claim they are not active there.

Miró wrote that the current reporting on Fabian Köster is meant to portray critical inquiries from media figures of the left establishment as mere insults, thereby stifling critical questions in general. In this process, reporters are redefined as streamers and critical questions as attacks, in order to shield media people from further criticism. According to Miró, Köster and others can continue to criticize without being questioned about their work. Miró described the campaign as transparent and ridiculous, stating that media people must accept questions about their actions when adhering to journalistic standards—especially when the public has to finance their professional existence and they regularly mock others. #Journalismus #Medienkritik #Pressefreiheit (translated)

The author wrote that the EU sanctions against the journalist Hüseyin Doğru would not be lifted.

Wolfgang Kubicki wrote that he had hoped for a stronger public outcry for a long time, but he was mistaken. He described the actions of the Hamburg judiciary against the editorial staff of "Die Zeit" as an unacceptable interference in press freedom. He warned that if the state could access confidential research, independent investigation and free reporting would be at risk. Kubicki contrasted the case with what he termed the expulsion fantasies of leftist activists and the Left Party against the editorial staff of "Apollo News" in Berlin. He urged the public to raise their voices as soon as the press is threatened or restricted; otherwise, the country could one day be unrecognizable. The Hamburg judiciary must provide explanations and return the laptop of the "Zeit" journalist untouched, he wrote. #Pressefreiheit #Meinungsfreiheit #Journalismus (translated)
