Euronews has had a new editorial director for the past 3 weeks and he comes from Axel Springer’s German tabloid Bild.
Quote via Politico (ironically—owned by Springer):
“Strunz declarations on Twitter are worrying because this is not what you’d expect from the boss of Euronews, especially when he applauds [far right German party] AfD results as a sign of functioning democracy,” src
After Trump’s victory, Euronews shared, uncommented, a congratulations video from Orbán to Trump on its Instagram feed.
There is now an open letter from the Union representatives voicing concern about the staff’s journalistic freedoms (in French).
Their reports on Gaza are quite unambiguous in who’s suffering and who’s at fault, but that’s by presenting facts, not interpreting them, or doing much drilling. Generally speaking they avoid talking about Israeli politics as much as they can: If the foreign ministry doesn’t want to talk about it you won’t see it on DW, there’s no direct ties just some kind of telepathic connection.
Compare that with their reports on e.g. the reparations discussion with Namibia, it’s night and day when it comes to covering detail.
