We can all be grateful for that.

That after the scandal comes the next scandal is not only a journalistic truism, it is also a matter of life experience. But the fact that two major Zurich publishing houses are being shaken to their foundations in just a year defies all probability.

The nationwide excitement over the informal direct line between the Federal Parliament and Ringier CEO Marc Walder has barely died down when the accusations made by long-time magazine taiwan rcs data journalist Anuschka Roshani against her former boss Finn Canonica and Tamedia's alleged reluctance to investigate dominate the headlines.

The fact that the allegations were published in the German news magazine Spiegel (!) according to the motto "Listen, what's coming from outside" and, with four pages, almost surpassed its Ukraine reporting, elevates them to such an international stage that the Berset-Ringier affair almost seems like a provincial farce from long-gone Corona days. Der Spiegel has experience with scandals:

Fake writer Claas Relotius brought the Hamburg publishing house to its knees at the end of 2018, and a year ago it wrote the then Bild boss Julian Reichelt out of office, ironically also for sexual assault. "What distinguishes us from Blick" was the headline in the Tagi two weeks ago, alluding to the direct line between Berset's communications chief Peter Lauener and Ringier CEO Marc Walder.

"The Roshani affair" would be the correct answer. What is reflected in the mirror has a different external effect than an investigation report that has been kept under wraps for a long time.
