      Diese Zeitung ist ein Organ der Niedertracht. Es ist falsch, sie zu lesen. Jemand, der zu dieser Zeitung beiträgt, ist gesellschaftlich absolut inakzeptabel. Es wäre verfehlt, zu einem ihrer Redakteure freundlich oder auch nur höflich zu sein. Man muss so unfreundlich zu ihnen sein, wie es das Gesetz gerade noch zulässt. Es sind schlechte Menschen, die Falsches tun.

      [This newspaper is an organ of malice. It is wrong to read it. Anyone who contributes to this newspaper is socially absolutely unacceptable. It would be a mistake to be friendly or even polite to one of its editors. One must be as unfriendly to them as the law allows. They are bad people doing wrong things.]

      – Max Goldt (author, columnist and musician)

      To quote Volker Pispers: That disgusting rag – the sort you could use to insult even a dead fish by wrapping it up in it?

      Every country has its own shitrag tabloids. Germany just has the largest population in Europe, so it is not surprising that the german one has the most sales.

        Also, conservative media sales numbers are misleading because rich assholes will buy 100 copies of whatever and leave it in their lobbies and other public spaces they own to normalize their right wing trash

          Unfortunately, reading the BILD is quite widespread among craftsmen and workers. Often, it’s also the only newspaper you can buy along with your breakfast at a bakery.

            Yeah, that’s gonna create a nazi problem again btw. Fox News was the primary driver of Americas nazi problem, and they exported the mental illness across 14 eyes.

              “Fox News” started in 1996. “Bild” has been around since 1952. They are both right-wing shit, but you cannot equate them 1:1.
