Manuel Ochsenreiter
Manuel Ochsenreiter is editor-in-chief of the German monthly news magazine ZUERST! (meaning First), which is “committed to the life and survival interests of the German people and the precious heritage of our European culture.” The magazine describes other media as controlled by foreign interests. According to The Interpreter, an English-language site specializing in Russian news, ZUERST! burnishes “the image of the Third Reich in popular culture” and opposes “what it regards as the humiliating legacy of denazification.” Just after the magazine began publishing in 2010, workers for its distributor, Bauer Media, threatened to strike, calling it a "pro-Nazi" magazine. Bauer dropped the publication. Ochsenreiter also is an on-air correspondent for the television channel, Russia Today. And he published a book, State Murder in Baghdad: Saddam Hussein and the Gallows, which compares the prosecution of Saddam Hussein to the Nuremberg trials. Ochsenreiter is close to Alexander Dugin and supports Russian interests in the Ukraine.
