1. It came out in the past day...that a major public talk forum on ARD (Channel One, public TV in Germany)...'Hart Aber Fair'....has lost 20-percent of their viewership over the past year. To some degree, they can blame the new moderator.
But in the same path of news....various other public forum shows are losing numbers (just not as bad as Hart Aber Fair).
I think to some degree....Germans are generally burned out on public forum shows which hype a great deal on politics. But to be honest, if you asked the general population...I think more than two-thirds of German society would tell you they never watch any of the public forum shows (ever). It is a limited group who watches, and it'd be fairly easy to burn out if you watched three or four of these each week.
2. Thuringia (the German state) has a Interior Minister who is suggesting a change to the state's constiution....to prevent the AfD Party from taking control if the election goes AfD's way in the fall.
Just by suggesting this....it'll attract negative attention.
3. Lot of German doctor's offices are closed this week across Germany.....in strike mode....saying more pay is necessary. Strike would supposedly end this weekend.
