Young world appeals to Tagesspiegel about anti -Jewish failures

The daily newspaper Young World from Berlin submitted a complaint with the German press council against the Tagesspiegel. The young world accuses the daily mirror of accusing the young world of young world in two articles that deal with a major event of accusing the anti -Jewish failures and thus violating the public principles of the press council. The young world in particular sees the principles of respect for the truth and journalistic duty of care.

The event that it deals with is the 29th International Rosa-Luxemburg conference, which was organized by the young world on January 13th at the Tempodrom in Berlin. Numerous international speakers and artists and around 3,600 visitors took part in the conference. A journalist of the daily mirror defamed the event as a "meeting of the Israel enemies" in which the Hamas terror was socially acceptable.

The journalist ran in her allegations on “margins”, which were caught up with “margin”, which could not be assigned to the event or the organizers. The corresponding statements were also not proven. The Simon-Wiesenthal Center in Los Angeles described the conference as an "anti-Semitic hate festival" after it had referred to the first article in the Tagesspiegel.

The young world accuses the journalist to have worked with hints and constructions in order to give a wrong impression of the conference. The daily mirror article was then used by relevant circles to defame the young world. The accusation of anti-Semitism, which was constructed in this way, even found its way into the Wikipedia entry of the young world.

The young world has decided to submit a complaint to the German press council due to the effectiveness of this defamation. The editor -in -chief of the young world, Stefan Huth, emphasizes the responsibility of the press, truly reported, and criticizes that this responsibility of so -called quality media is repeatedly violated.

In order to examine the allegations of the young world, the German press council will examine the incriminated articles of daily mirror and possible violations of the journalistic principles. It remains to be seen whether the press council will take place in the complaint of the young world and what consequences this will have for the Tagesspiegel.

Possible local effects and context:
- The complaint of the young world against the Tagesspiegel highlights the handling of the reporting on political events in Berlin.
- Since the young world is a left -wing daily newspaper, the complaint could also trigger a debate about the political orientation and the limits of freedom of the press in Berlin.
- The defamation of the young world as an anti -Semitic could have an impact on the image of the newspaper and also stain on other events and initiatives organized by the young world.

historical facts:
-The Young World was founded in East Berlin in 1947 and has long acted as the central newspaper of the GDR youth organization FDJ.
- In the past few decades, the young world has established itself as a left -wing alternative daily newspaper and is now one of the left -wing left -wing newspapers in Germany.
