As a result of the public debate about Ippen-Investigativ’s research on Bild editor-in-chief Julian Reichelt, Ippen Digital’s editor-in-chief takes a position and apologizes to those affected. +++ No more publication planned
Opinion dated October 20, 2021:
In the course of researching the Julian Reichelt case, numerous women turned to our editorial team and took the courage to tell us their stories. We have agreed to report on their personal fate while maintaining anonymity. We couldn’t keep this promise. I deeply regret that.
Because we did not publish the originally promised contribution at short notice, we did not live up to the trust that was placed in us. I apologize to those affected for this.
Markus Knall
Editor-in-chief Ippen Digital
Transparency notice from 10/25/2021:
In the wake of the events of the past week, the situation has changed for some of the sources in our research. It is therefore no longer possible to publish the research results as originally planned. Juliane Löffler will continue to research the abuse of power in the media industry.
