Germany: Public broadcasters ARD and ZDF are indoctrination platforms of a left-green worldview
Armin Laschet receives support from the same party in his criticism of public law. In a guest article for the Neue Osnabrücker Zeitung, member of the German Parliament of the CDU Michael von Abercron wrote about ARD and ZDF: “Not only the news programs, but also the political magazines and talk shows are degenerating more and more into uniform indoctrination platforms that are characterized by a left-green worldview. In the political direction there is "only one direction with a kind of left-wing feel-good communication".
In einem Gastbeitrag in den Zeitungen des A.-Beig Verlages habe ich mich kritisch zum Zustand unserer öffentlich rechtlichen Rundfunkanstalten geäußert. Klar ist: wir brauchen die Reform, wenn unsere Gesellschaft nicht zerbrechen soll! #gez #örr https://t.co/Qwqa2xsWPj— Dr. Michael von Abercron MdB (@mvabercron) January 13, 2020
The satire broadcasts "heute-show" and "extra 3" as well as the clip of the WDR "My grandma is an old environmental pig" would only come in satirical packaging, but could hardly be distinguished from the election messages of the like-minded people.

Jetzt hat CDU-MdB @mvabercron die Kritik verschärft. ARD und ZDF seien "Indoktrinationsplattformen links-grüner Weltanschauung"https://t.co/APgrRSa7Mj

Public service broadcasting would therefore rightly be in the crossfire of criticism: “It cannot be that the public broadcasters are constantly expanding their offerings and, on the other hand, are demanding more and more money. Ultimately, this leads to even higher broadcasting fees, the usefulness of which means that there is increasing doubt.
