German mogul buys the Telegraph

German media giant Axel Springer announced today its $766 million acquisition of RedBird imi, the owner of Britain’s Daily Telegraph newspaper. Axel Springer owns German newspapers Bild and Welt, and it acquired U.S. political news firm Politico in 2021. Axel Springer founded his firm in 1946 after starting a successful career in Nazi Germany and divorcing his half-Jewish wife “for career reasons,” according to his biographer. Deutschland Kultur said in 2012: “During the Nazi era, Springer had been jointly responsible for anti-Semitic propaganda.” After the war, he employed several people who had been staunch Nazis. One of Springer’s current editorial guidelines is to support the formation of a united Europe. The Bible warns that this unified empire will suddenly turn against America, Britain and the Jewish nation in the Middle East. Germany has acquired numerous tools to help it shape the narrative.
