BILD.Macht.Deutschland?

Behind the scene. I really dont want to be a journalist and search everyday for a new story

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.

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 "documentary" does not deserve its name. In fact, BILD is given a platform for self-portrayal. The opinion-making that creates and secures BILDs power goes one step further: with this series, the opinion about BILD itself is polished up. In order to convey a "balanced" point of view, the editorial team's weaknesses are also shown, which are just as honest weaknesses as those that you give when holding job interviews. In the end, we're all just human and the editor-in-chief maybe a bit tough but fair? Please don't fall for that! A planned and created narrative is induced as an anchor for sympathy and identification. As long as the factual loyalty is less important than maintaining power and sales, BILD has not earned its status and should not be supported. It's a shame that this series does just that!

This is more of a behind the scenes. I'm missing some form of moderation, what the film wants me to think about this kind of jornalism. How are other newspapers effected, let's look at some stories and how the story changed because of Bild.
