BILD.Macht.Deutschland?

Many of the reviewers apparently confuse the fact that this should be about the quality of the documentary and not about the BILD. I find the documentary very interesting, exciting and really well produced. I also don't see it as an advertisement for BILD.

Great 2020. This year even got worst. Now we have a documentary about how to create hate and racism... Absolut unbelieveable how someone could give this newspaper. A platform....

This a doc about the anti-democratic, racist, hate generating magazin (no not a real newspaper) BILD.

Nevertheless this could have been an interesting look into that medium and actually for the first three episodes it is. Because you see what you would expect. You see cocky, mysoginist argumentative Julian Reichelt and his peers creating stories basically because they can or because they don't like what either a politician or scientist has to say.

It answered my only question: Do they know? They don't! They actually believe that they do a job that would be considered good journalism. They really don't see the harm they do for individuals as much as for society.

After 3 or 4 episodes it becomes pure propaganda. In the first 3 episodes you had at least politicians criticizing aspects of what BILD does and at times there were even internal voices not in line with Reichelts regime. But then you get heroic music while BILD is patting themself on the back for several topics that you never actually see in the medium with the big letters. An interesting question would have been why politicians still tolerate this medium.

Not a docu a pure promotion for BILD. More propaganda for germans lie magazin number 1.

The documentary is well done and produced. But it lacks of necessary criticism. On the other hand it might not have been possible to film there / publish the series if the "journalists" of BILD would have been shown in a more critical way. The most important example for this dilemma: it gets pointed out, that BILD fights against Antisemitism (what is true), but on the other hand it isnt clearly told that BILD also creates hate against other minorities by generalising their behaviour or serving cliches. This is paradox.
