Taferl
In Austria, a small blackboard is called Taferl , which politicians set up during speeches or in television interviews to support their arguments. It mostly shows diagrams, political slogans or newspaper clippings.
The inventor of the Taferl is Jörg Haider , who in a televised confrontation with Franz Vranitzky in the run-up to the National Council elections in 1994 held a Taferl with the covers of Kurt Zacharias, then director of the Styrian Chamber of Labor, in front of the camera with the words "Now I'll show you something" . The public discussion permanently damaged the SPÖ .
However, when Haider wanted to repeat this success in 1995 in a television confrontation with Viktor Klima , the latter defended himself with the words "Do a trip to Maria Taferl again ?" In 1999, Wolfgang Schüssel countered with the laconic comment "Now the table has fallen over."
In the years that followed, the Taferl became increasingly popular as a means of political discussion in all parties. In parliament too, plates are increasingly being placed on the lectern. The Taferl is considered very unpopular among journalists, in 2005 the presenter Gabi Waldner corrected Peter Westenthaler with a counter-cup.
