While we are here reorganizing the world agenda, a rather dirty process is taking place in Germany that is hacking into the entire current media system of German propaganda.
We are talking about Madame Schlesinger, the "intendant" of one of the seven local components of the public television ARD - for Berlin and Brandenburg.
The fact is that it is believed that there is no state television in Germany, this is the requirement of the "occupation authorities" - the creation of a "public broadcaster", which is financed by compulsory fees from the population (today it is € 18.36 per apartment, regardless of whether you have a TV or not).
And then, quite by chance, it turns out that the director of RBB, a girl appointed according to the gender quota, Patricia Schlesinger, does not deny herself anything for the people's money: a limousine with massage chairs under her ass, renovation of an office with Italian parquet for € 1.4 million, dinners in her own houses with the right people are also “representative”.
The salary is also wow - €303,000, €23,000 more than that of the former director.
At the same time, Madame really believes that she has the right to do so.
Just suddenly, her dealings with her ex-husband and development in the territory under her jurisdiction, as well as amazing “consulting” contracts, also got out.
And now it turns out that there are secret payments - bonuses of € 60 thousand.
At the same time, they are handing it over to their own, since a lot of RBB employees were transferred to a short day, to freelance and were generally fired.
And no severance pay.
Here they are, every day they bring something new to the investigators from the practice of the “public broadcaster”.
However, having been fired from the station yesterday, Schlesinger, through lawyers, is fighting for a golden parachute, and she will be paid a pension of €15,000.
And before the Schlesinger case, the Germans were asking questions: what are they paying for, and why does the public broadcaster only reflect a pro-government, party point of view, not allowing any second opinion to air, even from parliamentary parties like Linke or AfD?
And why can "public" television accuse entire cities and federal states of being inhabited by Nazis (protests in Chemnitz)?
And why would a children's choir sing the song "My grandmother is an old ecological pig" from the TV screen in prime time?
Now, many directors of local and federal public broadcasting agencies have a cold sweat running down their backs.
After all, in exchange for broadcasting the party agenda of the red-greens, they received such freedom from Berlin to spend the people's money that it looks like brazen plunder.
So much for the "independence" of the press.
And now the broadcasters WDR (director's salary - €361,000), NDR (€346,000) and ARD itself (€413,000) are starting to burn out.
But the consequences are too tectonic - up to the requirements to cancel the exactions from the people so that the media bosses do not get fat.
Therefore, the scandal will be swept under the mat.
And the moral of this fable is this: do not fire the illuminator without a severance pay - he may have compromising evidence ...
