WHAT MUST BE SAID, BUT MUST NOT BE SAID

LOCATION:
Bruno Kreisky Forum
Panel discussion

Hans Rauscher
Commentator „Der Standard“

The refugee crisis, populism, arguments based on half-truths, hasty judgements, prejudices - all of these are tackled, corrected and set straight by award-winning journalist Hans Rauscher. He takes this stance in his book and says what needs to be said. As a journalist, Hans Rauscher has something against jumping to conclusions too quickly, against chattering for the sake of public attention, against distorting facts so that one's own world view does not come to a skidding halt.
He brushes all the alleged facts against the grain until their true content becomes visible. He addresses issues that move and divide society: What to do with the absolute rejection of further Muslim immigration in the wake of Erdogan's crackdown on Austro-Turks? And: Why we can understand the voters of right-wing populists, but should not follow their „solutions“. What is the real burden on the middle class?
The experienced columnist gets to the bottom of these and other questions, making a strict distinction between facts and opinions without pandering to any ideological or political camp - with a keen eye, a desire to talk and a good dose of humour.
