It’s a small but nasty betrayal of the public every time politicians go on television and then don’t want to say anything there. This is one of the reasons why many people enjoy listening to Robert Habeck, even those who don’t just get ecstatic when his hair is particularly beautifully tousled. On Wednesday there are two special opportunities for such listening. First, Habeck publishes a ten-minute keynote speech, which is rated as “historic” by digital chroniclers, who are always nervous, in a matter of seconds. Then the Vice Chancellor joins Markus Lanz’s show, in which an honest, often searching, and correspondingly little consoling conversation develops. Good television in anything but good times.
Robert Habeck at Lanz: A program without consolation, but with the right questions – media
