RTL released Dieter Bohlen (67) from his job as a juror in the talent show "Deutschland sucht den Superstar" and appointed Thomas Gottschalk (70) to the jury in his place. This is also confirmation of how thin the staffing level in Germany is and how difficult it is to find suitable candidates for top positions. The fact that Angela Merkel was able to hold out as Chancellor for almost 16 years is not only due to her skill, talent and temperament, but also to the fact that anyone who dared to fight her had no chance. Neither in the party nor among the voters.
