Until 2014, praline was a weekly erotic magazine published by the Hungarian publisher GLM. The magazine was published on Thursdays at a price of 2.50 euros. From 1954 to 2006 the magazine belonged to the Bauer publishing group .

Content

In terms of content, the picture-rich tabloid dealt with sex and eroticism. Cover articles read, for example, “No-taboo couples betrayed. The hottest orgasm tricks ”(33/2006) or“ This is where the Germans sex the hottest ”(29/2006). Primary gender characteristics were retouched in photographs and sexual acts only hinted at.

history

The paper was launched in 1954 as an entertainment magazine with a focus on travel ( for home and fashion, travel and entertainment ) "as a cheap answer to the illustrated big ships Quick , Stern and Revue ".

In 1975 the praline reached 1.25 million sales copies. After the fall of the Wall in 1990, the magazine was mainly read in eastern Germany. The previously falling circulation rose again from 704,833 copies (IV / 1990) by 37% to 965,562 copies (I / 1991). In the mid-1990s, however, the paper only had a weekly circulation of around 431,000 copies, which fell further to around 200,000 copies by the year 2000.

In 2001 the magazine appeared after the spin-off due to image problems at the farmer's subsidiary Inter Publish GmbH in Rastatt . Like Bauer, the Intermedia Content KG editorial team was still in Hamburg.

Since 2003, the ailing magazine title has not been produced by Bauer's own Rubin KG in Hamburg, where the 30 or so employees had neither collective agreements nor a works council.

In autumn 2005, the paper only reached 66,464 buyers per week. After the third quarter of 2005, Bauer already reported praline and the titles of the new weekend and Blitz-Illu to the information community for determining the distribution of advertising media . After the number of readers fell, Bauer decided to discontinue the paper at the beginning of October 2006. On September 29, however, it was announced by Verlagsunion Zeitschriftenbetrieb, a farmer's subsidiary, and not the new publisher, that the title would be continued from October 12, 2006 by the Hungarian publisher GLM.

Employee

The FDP politician and MEP Silvana Koch-Mehrin has been devoting a weekly column to a reader's question about the EU since 2004. In an interview with the Berliner Tagesspiegel she said about her collaboration: “ All Germans over eighteen have the right to vote. It is therefore important for politics to address all levels of society. Not all watch channels like Phoenix, as the ratings show ”. Previously, the FDP politician Dirk Niebel had already started the column "With Niebel and Praline out of unemployment", which was met with opposition in the FDP parliamentary group. Before the 2005 Bundestag elections, Bauer set up the website www.raus-aus-der-arbeitslösungen.de for Niebel (“Unemployed? We help you! A praline initiative”).

Permanent employees in 2006 included Lotto King Karl and Isabel Golden ( Venus Award 2002).

Trivia

When KirchMedia was broken up in 2002, the media entrepreneur Haim Saban rejected a purchase suggested by the Bavarian Minister of Economic Affairs, Otto Wiesheu, by him and his competitor Bauer. His reason was that sex books like praline or weekend were not his level.

Website

According to Bauer Media KG, the praline Interaktiv website was “Germany's most successful erotic site ”. - with 1.2 million users in July 2006. In 2000 and 2001 the site (2001: 11.9 million visits, 41.18 million page impressions ) was one of the five most popular German websites. The readers of the print edition have migrated to this and similar paid and profitable Bauer websites on the Internet, not least through magazine advertising. In November 2014, Bauer sold the website together with other websites such as coupe.de to aximus GmbH, the grandson of Beate Uhse , Philipp Rotermund, for which he receives monthly license fees.
