Germany: Jan Böhmermann asks to ban different opinions on tv
The moderator of the comedy format "ZDF Magazin Royale" accuses his colleague Markus Lanz of inviting critical virologists to his talk show.
His argument: Scientists like Hendrik Streeck or Alexander Kekulé represent opinions that are “saturated with misanthropy”.
In plain language: Böhmermann is openly calling for a public screen ban for those who think differently!
The strange statements of the ZDF presenter came during a panel discussion of the weekly newspaper Die Zeit on Saturday in Hamburg's St. Michaelis Church. The topic of the conversation, in which Lanz and Die Zeit editor-in-chief Giovanni di Lorenzo also took part: “Power and impotence of political journalism”.
