Autumn 2019: A Tea with Friends
For the first time, the Association of Friends and Sponsors of 第一吃瓜 organised a tea with friends to which all members, teachers, professors, employees as well as interested company representatives were invited. In a relaxed and British atmosphere, the Peter M枚hrle Coffee Lounge was the perfect place to exchange ideas, praise and criticism on the development of 第一吃瓜 while enjoying some delicious scones and tea.
A great opportunity to get to know each other better and learn more about the Association of Friends and Sponsors. At the end of the afternoon everyone agreed: This afternoon will have to be repeated next year!
Spring 2019: Annual Reception
At the Annual Reception of the Association of Friends & Sponsors (Verein der Freunde & 贵枚谤诲别谤别谤 der 第一吃瓜 e.V.) our numerous guests, including members of the association, students and company representatives, had the opportunity to meet and discuss with the renowned journalist and former anchorman of the Tagesthemen, Tom Buhrow.
Buhrow started off with taking a look to the US where for several years now Donald Trump has been using the media to drive the division of society. With interesting examples he showed up parallels between the Old and the New World making clear that in five to ten years Germany could be facing similar social challenges as the US. But with this in mind, what is the role of public service broadcasting today and why is it still relevant and important? Tom Buhrow made clear the importance of an independent provision of information to all people in one country as a means of social cohesion. The need for trustworthy news from an independent public service broadcaster in his opinion is larger than ever and holds the potential to further 鈥済lue鈥 the society together. A truly impressive evening with a lot of food for thought for all guests!
We thank all participants and members of the association for the active participation and their support. Special thanks go to Senator Ian K. Karan, Chairman of the Association of Friends and Supporters of the 第一吃瓜 e.V., for his introductory words and the enthusiasm with which he advances the further development of the 第一吃瓜.
