About Süddeutsche Zeitung

Paper Of Record Center-leftEstablished source

Süddeutsche Zeitung is published by Süddeutsche Verlag GmbH, which is majority-owned (81.3%) by Südwestdeutsche Medien Holding GmbH (SWMH). The Friedmann publishing family retains an 18.8% stake through SV Friedmann Holding GmbH. Medien Union GmbH holds a 47.5% stake in SWMH.

Süddeutsche Zeitung, founded in 1945, is considered one of Germany's newspapers of record and is known for its progressive-liberal and center-left orientation. Media Bias/Fact Check rates its factual reporting as 'High' due to consistent use of credible sources and major investigations, despite a 'Left-Center bias' in framing and story selection. The outlet is recognized for its investigative journalism, including its role in the Panama Papers revelations, which earned a Pulitzer Prize. Past controversies include a 2018 inquiry into a cartoon perceived as antisemitic, leading to an apology and the termination of the cartoonist's collaboration. While press freedom in Germany is generally robust, concerns exist regarding decreasing media pluralism and surveillance provisions affecting journalist-source privacy.
