She herself sees no loss of impartiality in her critical work as a professional journalist. These are not advertising appearances.

Volker Lilienthal , professor of journalism, criticized the fact that in the future Hayali might no longer be able to report neutrally about her clients. Furthermore, in contrast to commissioned moderation, good journalism means that you can choose topics and conversation partners yourself. The appearances should not be seen as a journalistic service, but as PR for companies and associations in the private sector.
