Julian Reichelt (born in June 1980 in Hamburg) is a German journalist. From 2017, he has been the editor-in-chief for the newspaper Bild.

Biography

According to the Bild newspaper, both of Reichelt's parents work as journalists. [1]

Reichelt attended the Gymnasium Othmarschen, and graduated in the year 2000. [2] From 2002-2003 he worked as a trainee for Bild, before completing his training as a journalist at the Axel-Springer-Akademie. [3] He reported from Afghanistan, Georgia, Thailand, Iraq, Sudan and Lebanon partly as war correspondent, and did works as a culinary reporter in 2007. [4]

From February 2014, he has been Editor-in-Chief of the Internet offshoot of "Bild" as successor to Manfred Hart, [5] and in February 2017, Springer-Verlag announced that Reichelt would be the successor to Kai Diekmann as chairman of the editor-in-chief, and would thus have overall editorial responsibility for the “Bild” newspaper. [6]

Reichelt is married.

Positions and style

Reichelt regularly takes positions on political issues. In addition to writing comments in the Bild newspaper and on Bild.de, he also appears on talk shows such as Beckmann, Anne Will, Hard But Fair and on WDR-Press Club. In addition, he has published two books.

In August 2015, Reichelt opposed an accreditation agreement and in his position as editor-in-chief, accused alleged Islamic State|IS fighters in a trial before the Higher Regional Court of Celle only to show their pixelated faces, as their guilt had not yet been proven. As a result, Reichelt was excluded as a reporter. [7]

The German Press Agency criticized the misrepresentation of Russian military operations in Syria by "Bild.de" under the title "Putin and Assad bombs on" in February 2016. The reference was an agreement on a ceasefire within a week. The article gave the untruthful impression that the ceasefire that had just been decided has been broken by Russia, and in terms of press ethics, the committee assessed the violation of the journalistic principles as so serious that it expressed disapproval in accordance with Section 12 of the Complaints Regulation. [8] Reichelt stated that because of this case, that the German Press Agency would "make itself the stooge of the Kremlin propaganda [...]". [9]

Awards and criticism

In 2008, Reichelt was awarded for his report "You can kill us, but never defeat us" from Afghanistan, published in two parts on October 12th and 13th, 2007 in Bild, with the Axel-Springer- Prize for young journalists in the category Supraregional / National Contributions.

In October 2018, Reichelt was to receive the “The Golden Potato” award from the New German Media Makers association for “particularly one-sided or unsuccessful reporting on aspects of the immigration society”. [10] He appeared at the award ceremony, but turned down the award because "the word 'potato' has become an abuse of race and origin in elementary schools where migration is not a success story" . [11]
