Die Zeit to Discontinue 'Christ & Welt' Special Pages
The German weekly newspaper 'Die Zeit' will cease publication of its special pages 'Christ & Welt' on October 22. The publisher confirmed that religious and Christian topics will continue to be covered, but integrated into the digital offerings and the 'Glauben und Zweifeln' section rather than as a separately subscribable product. The editorial team of 'Christ & Welt' will be reassigned to other departments within the newspaper. This marks the end of a tradition dating back to 1948, when 'Christ & Welt' was an influential Christian weekly. It was later merged into the 'Rheinischer Merkur' in 1980, and then acquired by 'Die Zeit' in 2010. The section's size was halved from six to three pages in 2024.
- Die Zeit will discontinue its 'Christ & Welt' special pages on October 22.
- The publisher will continue religious coverage in digital formats and the 'Glauben und Zweifeln' section.
- The editorial staff of 'Christ & Welt' will be reassigned to other departments.

Frank Gotthardt: 'I don't want Nius to be quieter'
German entrepreneur Frank Gotthardt, who finances the controversial news portal Nius, was profiled after allowing a journalist from Die Zeit to accompany him. Gotthardt is reportedly dissatisfied with Nius’s financial performance — the Zeit piece suggests he has invested around €40 million so far and continues to add slightly more than €1 million per month — but says he will keep funding the project. He frames his support as political and cultural, rejecting what he calls the tone of public broadcasters and arguing Nius must remain loud to reach people. Gotthardt defends the outlet against accusations of systematic lying while acknowledging occasional mistakes; Nius editor-in-chief Julian Reichelt praises him in the profile.
- Frank Gotthardt is the financier of the news portal Nius.
- Die Zeit reported Gotthardt has invested roughly €40 million in Nius and that ongoing losses add slightly more than €1 million per month.
- Nius was founded about four years ago with former Bild editor-in-chief Julian Reichelt.

Welt to launch Instagram-native livestream for Berlin and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern elections
German publisher Axel Springer's Welt brand is launching Instagram-native live broadcasts for the state elections in Berlin and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. Hosted by Marlene Barduhn, the format uses Instagram's live infrastructure, with Barduhn moving through the Welt newsroom, including the newsroom CvD, domestic politics desk, and TV studio analysis wall. Two editions are scheduled: one at 6 PM for initial projections and another at 8 PM with current counting status and political analysis. Reporters from Berlin (CDU headquarters) and Schwerin (SPD election party) will be integrated via personal Instagram accounts, and data analyst Marian Grunden will provide real-time analysis. The community is engaged through live questions and a dedicated Q&A block with political editor Maximilian Heimerzheim. Moritz Seyffarth emphasized that this proves journalistic competence can be translated into Instagram's mechanics, ensuring the content is native to the platform, not a repurposing of TV content.
