A regular German host for the Kremlin-funded RT news outlets has been exposed as the editor of a neo-Nazi revisionist magazine.
Manuel Ochsenreiter, who has appeared on the English-language channel for the past four years as an expert on German and Middle Eastern affairs, is the editor of Zuerst!, a radical right-wing monthly magazine, which pledges to "serve German not foreign interests" and preserve "German ethnical identity" against "de-nazification".
Zuerst!'s former publisher was the Bauer Media group, Germany's largest magazine publisher, which came under a storm after evidence was uncovered that many of its magazines were glorifying Nazism and Adolf Hitler's soldiers, polishing the image of the Third Reich in popular culture.
Ochsenreiter's magazine advances an anti-immigrant stance and laments the loss of ethnic identity. It caught the attention of the Baden-Württemberg' state office for the protection of the constitution, which said in a statement: "The publication rails against the 'unending de-nazification effort', spreads revisionist theories on national boundaries, and the terrorist activities of the South Tirolean Freedom Fighters in the 1960s."
