Does it? I guess all the media outcry and that she was called back by her own party was also based on a false premise?
Media outcry is media outcry, it doesn't need any basis for it to occur, as for her party making it an issue that means nothing as thats what politicians do when the media spout as an issue. Look at the American example recently with Breitbart creating a huge story which outraged the public and got the white house to step in decisively to tackle the issue ....before it emerged it was all just bull cooked up by a wingnut with an agenda.

What Spiegel article?
Sorry I didn't realise views on an issue had to be limited to one source.

What has Saxony to do with it?
It was for the state of Lower Saxony.

As a matter of fact the representatives of the media in Lower Saxony felt that they were supposed to sign a self censor agreement.
Hmmmmm.....
"A representative of the German Journalists' Association in the state described Özkan's initiative as superfluous, noting that similar language was already contained in the journalists' code of conduct in the state."
Damn that German media for reporting that eh.

First of all, who brought that crucifix issue into this debate? I did not. So why are you referring to this now? I never even mentioned it.
Oh sorry, I didn't realise you don't want people to read the links you post.
So if you don't want to bring it into the debate Schroeder then don't link to a story its in.
It does nicely illustrate the media outrage angle though doesn't it, as they got all flusterd about banning crucifixes as thats popular outrage the muppets can really hate, while ignoring banning the headscarves as they don't want them damn muslims stealing their thunder on popular outrage that they are selling the muppets.
