History and profile
It was founded in 1861 by Ottokar Franz Ebersberg , a journalist and playwright who wrote under the pseudonym O. F. Berg . The paper was successful and popular until the First Republic. In the best of times, the circulation was 25,000 copies.
Until the 1880s, the paper had a liberal orientation. Under the increasing influence of the Christian Socials around Karl Lueger , the Kikeriki became sharply anti-Semitic . After the First World War , the paper moved closer to the German nationalists and, since the mid-1920s, also to the Austrian NSDAP . In 1933 the Kikeriki was banned by the Austrofascist Dollfuss government because of its partisanship for the Reich German National Socialists who came to power on January 30th .
