history

The predecessor of report Munich was the magazine “ANNO - film reports on news from yesterday and tomorrow”, which went on air on October 25, 1960. ANNO was the ARD's first political magazine. The Bayerische Rundfunk produced this preceding format together with the Southwest Radio (SWF). From August 5, 1962, this broadcast was called Report . BR and SWF (today SWR ) have been producing the successor formats separately and independently since 1966 . The BR edition is called report Munich , the SWR is now called Report Mainz . In 2006, as part of the restructuring of the ARD Politmagazine , the broadcast was shortened from 45 minutes to 30 minutes.

Moderators and editorial managers

The moderators and editorial managers were:

Reports with great response

In the first broadcast, the Politmagazin reported on the arrest of SS-Obersturmbannführer Adolf Eichmann . The trial of Eichmann and the clarification of the mass murder of Jews was a main topic in the first broadcasts.

On August 7, 1967, report München broadcast a film about "The Hippies of San Francisco". In the 14-minute report, Dagobert Lindlau illuminates the life of the hippies in San Francisco in the late 1960s. The TV Museum Hamburg commented: "With impressive pictures Lindlau shows young people intoxicated with drugs , drives his Ford Mustang through the infamous Haight-Ashbury and even buys LSD on the roadside without any problems ." The film is an example of how political magazines do how report Munich shaped the classic reporting genre in their early years.

Also in 1967 report München broadcast an interview with Max Horkheimer on “fascist anti-fascism ”, which was recognized as a thoughtful criticism of the political struggle and of a climate in which the RAF later wanted to fight for a just world with murder and manslaughter. The Bayerische Rundfunk received the Grimme Award for this interview.

In 1984 the Federal Criminal Police Office confiscated a secret file in the report's editorial office in a spectacular search operation. The trigger was a film about the secret "Bundeswehr Plan 1985 - 1997", which uncovered deficiencies in Bundeswehr projects.

In January 1992, moderator Heinz Klaus Mertes' request to resign from the broadcast against Brandenburg's Prime Minister Manfred Stolpe sparked severe criticism in the media and on ARD itself. This was preceded by a SPIEGEL publication with Stolpe's confessions about his previous Stasi contacts. The WDR television editor Nikolaus Brender described the process at the time "as instructive CSU party journalism". In the BR Broadcasting Council , Mertes was accused of being “submissive”, “submissive”, “kneeling” towards the CSU. As a result, Mertes switched to the private broadcaster Sat.1 in 1993 as information director .

In 2000, the CDU parliamentary group leader Wolfgang Schäuble resigned in the course of the CDU donation affair two weeks after the report about his hitherto unknown meeting with the lobbyist Karlheinz Schreiber .
