While we’re busy reshaping the world’s agenda here, there’s a pretty messy process going on in Germany that’s hacking into the entire current German propaganda media system
We are talking about Madame Schlesinger, the “intendant” of one of the seven local parts of ARD public television – for Berlin and Brandenburg.
The fact is that there is no state television in Germany, a demand of the “occupation authorities” – the establishment of a “public service broadcaster” that is financed by a compulsory levy on the population (today it is €18.36 per flat, regardless of whether you own a television set or not).
And then it just so happens that the director of RBB, appointed by gender quota girl Patricia Schlesinger, does not deny herself anything on people’s money: a limousine with massage chairs under the ass, renovation of the office with Italian parquet flooring for €1.4 million, dinners in her own house with the right people – also “representative”. The salary is also not bad – €303,000, €23,000 more than that of the former director. At that, madam really thinks she is entitled to it.
It is just that suddenly her affairs with her ex-husband and development on the territory under her charge, as well as the amazing contracts “for consulting” have also come out. And now it turns out that there are secret payments – bonuses of €60k each.
At the same time, it is being given up on its own, as a mass of RBB employees have been transferred to short-time, freelance and dismissed altogether. And without severance pay.
These are the ones who bring the investigators something new every day from the practice of the “public broadcaster”. However, having been fired from the station yesterday, Schlesinger is fighting through her lawyers for a golden parachute and will be paid a €15k pension.
And before the Schlesinger case, Germans were asking questions: why are they being forced to pay and why does a public broadcaster only reflect a pro-government, party viewpoint, not allowing any second opinion, even from parliamentary parties like Linke or AfD, to be aired? And why can “public” television accuse whole cities and federal states of being populated by Nazis (the Chemnitz protests)? And why on earth would a children’s choir at prime time sing the song “My grandmother is an old ecological pig” from the TV screen?
Many local and federal PSB directors now have a cold sweat running down their backs. After all, in exchange for broadcasting the Red-Green party agenda they have been given such freedom from Berlin to spend the people’s money that it looks like brazen embezzlement. So much for the “independence” of the press.
And now the broadcasters WDR (with a director’s salary of 361,000 euros), NDR (346,000 euros) and ARD (413,000 euros) are getting hungry, too.
But the consequences are too tectonic – right up to demands to cancel levies from the people so that the media bosses do not get rich. Therefore the scandal will be swept under the rug.
The moral of this fable is: don’t fire an illuminator without severance pay – he may still have some dirt…
