“Immer bestens informiert”, in English, “always up to date” is the slogan of “Die Presse”, an Austrian quality newspaper, which we visited with our school on Friday. First we were given the basic information about the history and the newspaper as such. At the beginning 500-600 people were employed by the newspaper and more than 50.000 copies were sold annual. In 1938 a supporter of the nationalists denigrate the newspaper, because of the Jewish employees. In 1953 the new owner of “Die Presse” was Fritz Molden, because his father Ernst Molden died. In September 1996 “ Die Presse.com” was established. Every newspaper has its special subjects with “Die Presse” it´s politics, economy, culture and comments.
