  • A Der Standard media column satirizes recent remarks involving former minister Elisabeth Köstinger, Exxpress publisher Eva Schütz and Andreas Mölzer.
  • Schütz argued that journalistic quality can include longer articles and depends on how the authority awarding financial support defines it.
  • The excerpt also references Mölzer and his views on urinals.

The latest installment of Der Standard’s media column turns its attention to “secret plans, old and new,” mixing references to former minister Elisabeth Köstinger, Exxpress publisher Eva Schütz and Andreas Mölzer.

The column highlights a discussion at the Kurier’s Salon Salomon, where Schütz set out the journalistic quality standard for which she believes her publication deserves financial support.

“We do have longer articles,” Schütz said. The column presents her argument alongside the observation that quality is a flexible concept, defined by whoever distributes the funding, currently Andreas Babler.

The piece also promises “hope and a flexible definition of quality” with Schütz, as well as what it calls Mölzer’s old-fashioned views on urinals.
