Transparency and targeting of political advertising (debate)
Mr President, ladies and gentlemen! To name Ross and Reiter is important for the reconstruction of the devastated culture of debate of recent years. There I am going completely d'accord with the previous speakers, although I am fundamentally of the opinion that the responsible citizen is in many cases himself able to come to the conclusion from whom a political message comes. It is much more difficult in cases where journalists are not as independent as they claim to be, and in cases where NGOs, i.e. Non-governmental organizations, just to hidden governmental organizations They are made because they are fed by the government with money and endowed with rights, or even if parties get far-reaching influence on the media landscape of a country through participations. The democratic super-GAU, of course, when all three actors act in quasi-collusive cooperation against those parties that are just not in government. Ladies and gentlemen, that's why: Yes, we want more transparency in the current election campaign, and we start with Correctiv and the SPD's red media empire in Germany.
