reception

In its regional section, the orientation of the Tagblatt was considered to have tended to be left-liberal to left -wing, at least during the 35-year editor-in-chief of Christoph Müller (1969 to 2004) ; This is unusual for a Baden-Württemberg newspaper with a regional and state-related predominantly conservative environment (including press environment). The Tagblatt was and is colloquially referred to as "Neckar- Prawda " in colloquial language with an associative reference to the Neckar flowing through Tübingen and the most famous Soviet daily newspaper - ironically provocative by supporters and disparaging by opponents . In contrast, the supraregional shell part taken over by the Südwest Presse can be assigned to a bourgeois-liberal-conservative direction.

The Schwäbisches Tagblatt received worldwide attention in 2002: An editor of the paper had heard how the then German Federal Minister of Justice and Tübingen constituency member Herta Däubler-Gmelin (SPD) allegedly discussed the foreign policy of US President George W. Bush with Adolf Hitler at a local trade union event compared. The exact content and context of the statement are still controversial, but the incident ultimately led to Däubler-Gmelin's resignation from her ministerial office.
