The Wall Street Journal: Germany is preparing a response to the "challenge of Russian propaganda"

In Germany, a new media service is being created to counter the Russian media operating in Europe, reports RIA "News" with reference to The Wall Street Journal.

“The international broadcasting corporation Deutsche Welle plans in April to launch a new multimedia service in English called DWNews. According to DW President Peter Limburg, he is designed to respond to the “challenge of Russian propaganda,” the newspaper notes.

According to the WSJ, in 2015, the DW budget will be increased by 9.3% - to 294 million euros.

Meanwhile, in Germany, this initiative was taken far and unequivocally. According to many politicians, the government is too carried away by the information war.

“I don’t want DW to become the mouthpiece of the German Foreign Ministry,” said Harald Petzold, a member of the opposition left-wing party of Die Linke.

Employees of the corporation are also not happy with the creation of a new service, since, despite the increase in the company's financing, this will not affect their salaries.

“Despite the new budget, the situation has not changed for employees. Many of them do not know what will happen to their jobs in the near future, ”said Klaus Enderl, head of the DW workers union and representative of the DJV Association of German Journalists.

The head of the union noted that since December last year, employees of the corporation have been holding protests and strikes, and a large-scale action is scheduled for February at Bonn headquarters.

Let them tell the Germans in "English" what Russian are bad.
And this is in addition to all that they already have in order to win "one single Russian channel broadcasting to the West ... Scream, by God!"

It was the Germans who responded that they were blamed for the fact that Germany absorbed the GDR without a popular referendum. And it was necessary to be so offended that he decided to throw money away, that is, on the air! It would be better to donate this money for a good deed.

[Stalevar]

In the future, the Germans will shamefully recall the reign of Mrs. Merkel!

[olegkrava]

They already remember and slowly who went to live, as they say in their historical homeland, by hook or by crook, they are drawn to Russia.
P / S by the way kids 90 years old.

The Germans are already late!

Leading broadcasting corporations of the Russian Federation and China coordinated information policy

Leading Russian and Chinese media outlets will establish an exchange of experience in countering urgent information threats and external attempts to destabilize the situation in these countries. The corresponding agreement was reached on January 27 at the talks held in Beijing between the director general of the Rossiya Segodnya news agency Dmitry Kiselev and the director general of China International Radio Wang Gengnyan.
The leaders of the leading broadcasting corporations of the Russian Federation and China agreed to hold regular meetings to coordinate their positions and promote cooperation. This year, such consultations will be held at least twice: in May in Russia and in September in China. The presence of Dmitry Kiselyov at the upcoming media summit in March on Hainan Island is also possible.

The main areas of cooperation in the short term are the development of a special format and the joint creation of radio programs, close cooperation in coverage of events dedicated to the 70 anniversary of the Victory over fascism and opposition to attempts to rewrite history and revise the results of World War II.

Germany swallowed the GDR without a popular referendum.

Once again: German constitution forbids referendums on military-political issues.

[saber]

which Germany? German Democratic Republic or Federal Republic of Germany?

[Giant thought]

But not everything is so good in the Merkel kingdom, so they are trying to find a way out of the impasse into which they drove themselves.

The joke of humor is that the German audience who wants to see the events from a different point of view will not watch ANOTHER ONE government channel, but will still watch RT. The Germans can open at least ten new resources, at least a hundred - they still can not offer the audience the same thing.

[siberalt]

That the Germans are cunning. They are trying to defend themselves not from "Russian propaganda", but from the truth seeping through their own media.

[41 REGION]

They will put YouTube videos and read news from the censor

[Момент]

That's right, European values, and Merkel’s rule is in jeopardy. Why should the Germans know the truth.

[trenitron]

Apparently in the prospects of Germany, the cloning (resurrection) of Goebels

[Same lech]

Apparently in the prospects of Germany, the cloning (resurrection) of Goebels

You are not far from the truth ... I’ll just correct not GERMANY but the German leadership to which I rank MERKEL and the like.

The situation is developing logically with respect to the organization by the revanchists of the next DRANG NAH OSTEN.

Everything is back to square one ... During the years of the Cold War, Radio Liberty talked about how bad we are and how good it is and now they are specially creating something special! Apparently these ghouls have something to be afraid of !!

Merkel bit the bit ... the dog bit her, or what?

the dog has nothing to do with it. Dad from the other world, Aloysich, called, encouraged.

The truth that people receive from our channels got these liars.

She is so blissed out by the fact that Obama crawled under her skirt with her wiretap and even knows the color of her underpants.

under the skirt and even knows the color of her underpants.

But somehow you can do without vulgarity?

[igorgar]

And where did you see vulgarity here? Not a single word of lies, only truth and nothing but the truth. And vulgarity should be considered the actions of a man in the prime of life in relation to a woman aged, even if she is pleased.

[U-47]

Quote: igorgar

Where did you see vulgarity here?

it seems that we put different meanings into the concept of "vulgarity". Personally, the strawberry about Merkel's panties seems to me filthy. However, I do not insist.

[oblako]

They personally hold her for the udder of the US special services, and they do not allow her to deviate from the party's course. We will soon find out how to leave ...

[rotmistr60]

It's time to show the Germans once again Romm's film Ordinary Fascism. Refresh their memory and make them feel what they did in their time. And who is being supported at the moment.

[Junior, I]

Before showing it, you must veil the name so that it is missed on the screens.
And it’s better to start and drive through our channel for a day or even more so that more people see him.

[Finches]

And in pursuit of showing "Come and see", which would finally clear up in the head about the ideals of Nazism!

Sad as it may be, the comrade, but even here some people do not interfere with his review.

[rotmistr60]

but here, too, some people do not interfere with its revision.

I do not argue.

[Loner_53]

Murkel, it's time to remind if she forgot, there was already one Reich Chancellor barking at Russia,healthy
Or does she think that she cannot be taken out from under tanned macaques?

[avvg]

Again Angla - Saxons use Germany against Russia and it is unfortunate that the Germans succumb.

[Junior, I]

The life and war of the Germans did not teach anything! It's a pity!
They are like Ukrainians, like to ride a rake.

[Silkway0026]

very sorry that the Germans succumb

The big question is whether the Germans succumb to US pressure, or hide behind US pressure to play their game. Look, what Hitler was trying to achieve during the war, was realized today by Germany using the "EUROSION" method. The entire economy of the entire European Union is being formatted for marketing, first of all, to Germany, they look into the mouth of Germany, production falls, and in Germany nothing was suspended and did not even lead to a crisis.

[andrew42]

Ahh! The Saxons are coming ?! Who is this? Hauskarl Harold 2nd crossed the English Channel and with axes at the ready marching along Geyrop? So in Germany as many as 2 (!) Saxony. We must be careful with the terms, otherwise we will forget who we are fighting with.

[just exp]

let’s look better from where such screenshots appear



and how the "people" "express" their opinions

[just exp]

the first picture did not fit

[Mikhail m]

They were afraid that Russia would recognize the annexation of East Germany as annexation and would take appropriate measures.

[U-47]

Quote: Mikhail M

and take appropriate action.

curious to know - which ones?

[guznorodov]

They would rather watch their perverts, soon European families will die out like mammoths.

[SveTok]

In all circumstances, the Germans did not keep up with the banderlogs who had long overtaken their teachers in the quality of the information presented.

[Taltanbek]

.... everything REALLY manifests WITH T R A X Anglo-Saxons, the awakening of the SPIRIT OF ARIES and RUSSIANS
- There’s no chance of ....
- Russ bleed;

[Koronik]

So they came from what they left, the Germans repeat the story, and from that it began in 1933-1935. What we all brought to mind, and I thought they were reasonable and practical people, sorry.

[Noki51177]

There is no way to hide the truth, and people in Europe are drawn to it, they are fed up with the pro-American puppet government with its evil tricks against Russia.

[shelva]

Propaganda is in the West, and in our country - information broadcasting. Soon their propaganda will gobble up the salaries of the propagandists and they will end up on the street.
As the saying goes: "All the steam went off the beep."

[31rus]

Dear, there are some kind of non-docking here, but why in English, and even against Russia, it’s a shame

[Teberii]

With this money, you can again restore the wall that divided Germany and shout that the Russians are completely to blame.

[Leonidych]

they lost the propaganda war under Goebels ....

[Pencil]

But why did Germany have to be teased by nodding at the fall of the Berlin Wall? Have you benefited a lot from this?
Someone is trying to turn the Germans face us, little by little, with tiny steps, thoughtful actions, and then the bam and someone like that snot blew it all ... Where are the principles of sophisticated diplomacy in how to turn enemies into friends or friends you just need to in Menegars, stupidly buying, for example, - joint space stations?

[sounddoc]

Photo from the family archive of Angela Merkel: "Me and Grandpa Addie" ...

[Russian Uzbek]

reincarnation of "Velkischer Beobachter"?
they have strange logic in the west: there are a thousand and one channels that round-the-clock deliver info in the right way ... PEOPLE DO NOT BELIEVE! let's open a thousand and two - they will suddenly believe!

[Metallurgist]

Unclear. Not at all clear.
Russian propaganda. Actually, they are telling the truth to us. HOW can you resist the truth? Only erecting a lie, a lie and an even greater lie? So after all, they begin to turn in and contradict themselves.
Well, apparently they took over the experience of "lads from the state budget" and decided to cut the money?

[jovanni]

The German bourgeoisie befell something. What propaganda is there, one channel, RT. We have to take care of this, how to convey the truth to the people of Europe ...

[sergei loginov]

Soon we will find out that Hitler did not shoot himself at all, but died
a hero saving children. In the square near the Reichstag, he walked with children, and the insidious
Zhukov (1000 trunks per 1 km of front) struck, 960 children died
and grandfather Adolf

[gla172]

All this is a pointless waste of money, maybe it was actual 30 to 40 years ago when the Internet was not there.

[Arktidianets]

Create an analogue of the Goebbels newspaper of the propaganda newspaper NSDAP Angrif? And then? Torchlight processions and burning books?

[K-50]

Germany twice encroached on Russia in the 20th century ogrebla by the most unfortunate, some ruins remained. And again, the arrogant Saxons set her against Russia. And who said that the Germans are a smart nation? Apparently, by no means will Germany be completely erased from the face of the Earth, and they will be raking trindules under someone else's tune!

[Evgtan]

There will be a reason to demand. objective information

[Prutkov]

Well, well ... Another GoebelsWelle ...

Frau Merkel tortured menopause!

The Germans only fight with journalists and left ...
