Life

Jochen Breyer graduated from the Friedrich-Hecker -Gymnasium in Radolfzell in 2002 and began studying political science , economics and American studies at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität in Munich . He finished this in 2006 with a Magister Artium .

His journalistic activity began during his studies. From 2003 to 2009 he worked as a freelancer for the Süddeutsche Zeitung . From 2005 to 2011 he was also a reporter and editor at Bayerischer Rundfunk for the radio programs B5 aktuell and Bayern 3 . He started working for ZDF in 2007. He has been a reporter and editor in the sports department there since 2007, and since 2008 he has also been featured as an interviewer and reporter on the current sports studio program . Since 2009 it has also been used by ZDF for live broadcasts in football . I.a. he conducted the live interviews after the games at the 2010 Soccer World Cup in South Africa . Breyer has been a permanent presenter at the ZDF morning magazine since 2011 . Since the 2012/13 season he has been the presenter of the UEFA Champions League on ZDF alongside Oliver Welke . Together with the expert Oliver Kahn , he initially moderated six of the 18 live broadcasts there each year. At the games that he does not host himself, he conducts the interviews for ZDF. Since the 2015/16 season he has moderated half of the broadcasts. This activity ended after the 2017/18 season because ZDF did not acquire the rights to the Champions League broadcasts again.

In August 2013 ZDF announced that Breyer would take over from Michael Steinbrecher as the presenter of the current sports studio . He presented his first edition of the program on December 14, 2013. Breyer came under fire in April 2020 for an interview with Dietmar Hopp in the current sports studio , which, among other things, discussed his relationship to the fan scene. The reason for the criticism was that Breyer did not have a live conversation with Hopp, but was allowed to submit video recordings of written questions asked in advance. Critics described Breyer's approach as "unjournalistic". The media journalist Stefan Niggemeier raised the question of a conflict of interest and spoke of damage to the credibility of the reporting, as Breyer had moderated the New Year's reception of Hopp's club TSG Hoffenheim a few months earlier as a sideline .

In August 2017, Breyer presented the report Am Puls Deutschlands - Jochen Breyer for the first time a television format with a political focus before the election .

At the 2018 World Cup in Russia , he formed the moderation duo of ZDF with Oliver Welke .

In 2020 he appeared on the game show Did you know? as an expert on Jürgen Klopp .
