The scandal broadcaster RBB caused outrage again – with a comment.
On Inforadio and on rbb24, editor Franziska Hoppen called the BER blockade of the climate stickers “right”. Reason: Because we fly and drive cars despite the climate crisis. “Passivity is also violence,” says Hoppen.
“The trivialization of criminal offenses is not the task of public broadcasting,” warns RBB broadcasting councilor Christian Goiny (CDU), “not even in the commentary.”
SPD council member Erik Stohn sees this as “an endorsement of criminal offenses,” says: “I’ll bring that up in the Broadcasting Council.”
Brandenburg’s Greens leader Alexandra Pichl understands climate activists: “But they must not endanger human life. We do not advocate crime. A broadcaster shouldn’t either!”
FDP media politician Stefan Förster: “The RBB comment justifies violence and thus calls for criminal offenses. That is unspeakable.”
