So brittle longtime “Monitor” presenter Klaus Bednarz also came over, he was a real Scandals – at that time, as a political magazines have stirred up the public. Now the journalists Legend
He was the chronicler German grievances. Monotone and accusing glance he listed the shortcomings of the Republic: environmental sins, discrimination, corruption, abuse of power, exploitation, arms deals. So viewers knew the political magazine “Monitor” Klaus Bednarz. On Tuesday evening, he died at the age of 72 years.
It is 14 years ago since Bednarz moderation and President of “Monitor” gave. It feels longer. This is probably because he was still loves a bit of time. Bednarz actually belonged in the 80s.
Once the whistleblower number one
Bonn Republic Kohl era. Since he got his two Grimme Awards. There was “Monitor” power factor. If the ARD magazine reported Tuesday night that worms were in the fish remained in Germany on Wednesday the fish shops empty. Inconceivable that a political TV magazine could have such relevance today.
Back in the 80s, journalism, the whistleblower had the greatest reputation. And when it came to revealing and denouncing, none have come close to “monitor” on television. Each program had an average of nine million people – roughly equivalent to what Thomas Gottschalk with Europe’s last Saturday evening show “Wetten dass ..?” achieved.
Ostrich railed against the “Red Empire Television Chamber”
The enlightened approach, however, was only one reason why it was powered on the broadcast. The other was that you wanted to see either confirmed by Bednarz or get upset about it. Political magazines at that time still had a clear political orientation. Gerhard Lowenthal preached in “ZDF magazine” decades “Marx is Murx”. The produced by WDR “Monitor” in turn was a red rag to All Blacks. Franz Josef Strauss described the mission once called “Red Empire Television Chamber”.
Bednarz fought to the very end of this assignment and led to evidence of abuse by politicians of the SPD and the Greens. And it is also true that he was never a partisan in the sense that he had certain politicians spoke the word, perhaps even from calculation. His concern was genuine. Every time Sometime in the late 90s Bednarz began as a relic of an earlier era to act again.
Dickrandige glasses and sweater under the jacket
. Much in Germany had changed, but he sat still with his unfashionable, heavy rimmed glasses and a sweater under the suit jacket.
Born on June 6, 1942 Bednarz was next to his “Monitor” action and commentator on the television program “daily news” and from 2002 until his retirement in 2007. WDR chief reporter and special correspondent for ARD. He also founded the ARD studio in Warsaw and was head of the ARD studios in Moscow. Most recently, he lived in retirement near Schwerin
Buhrow. “We are very sad”
For his journalistic work, the journalist received numerous awards, including the Carl-von-Ossietzky Medal, . Golden Camera and the Environmental Media Award of Deuschen Umwelthilfe
“Klaus Bednarz was with body, soul, and razor-sharp mind journalist – and a fine person We are very sad that with us he is no more.” wrote WDR director Tom Buhrow on the homepage of the transmitter. WDR editor in chief Sonia Mikich explained, “Klaus Bednarz was an anchor for all those working for human rights, freedom and justice.”
