Life

Thür's self-description on his website is short: “I do television”. He studied theater studies and political communication .

From 2000 Thür worked for regional television P3tv in St. Pölten. In 2002 he moved to ATV in Vienna and was employed in various functions in the news and magazine sector. Step by step he took over special election programs ( Meine Wahl ), designed series of interviews for ballots at federal and state level and acted as the designer of the "ATV Document" series. He was also posted to Los Angeles, Washington, Brussels and the Vatican as a live correspondent for ATV. In 2010 his documentary Volkssport Doping received a lot of attention.

The Klartext format he developed was launched on ATV in October 2014 . It was broadcast every Monday evening at 10:25 p.m. The broadcast maxim is to speak plainly with politicians - something they like to avoid . Part of the concept are unusual locations in which interviews are conducted: an empty factory hall, a cellar, outdoors on two stones in front of refugee tents in Nickelsdorf. The choice of interview partner should shed light on the topic from several perspectives, the conversations are recorded and only partially integrated into the broadcast. For example, Thür spoke for the program Traiskirchen - The forgotten camp with government advisor Kilian Kleinschmidt , the city's mayor, Andreas Babler , and with Daniela Pichler from Amnesty International . On September 26, 2016, he moderated the ATV duel between the presidential candidates Alexander Van der Bellen and Norbert Hofer .

In 2017 he switched to Addendum and the political interview broadcast was canceled. He moderates the annual awards of the negative award Goldenes Brett vorm Kopf . In 2019, Thür switched to ORF, where he moderates the Sundays ZIB 2 on ORF 2 and also works as an editor during the week.

His work has received several awards.
