After 19 years, Judith Rakers is quitting as “Tagesschau” spokeswoman. Finally, she has an important message for her audience.
From the perspective of “Tagesschau” spokeswoman Judith Rakers, anyone who wants to help shape democracy should not completely isolate themselves, even in the face of so much terrible news. “Yes, sometimes it’s too much for me too. You have the feeling that one catastrophe follows the next,” said Rakers, who appeared on the “Tagesschau” for the last time on January 31st, to the “Augsburger Allgemeine”.
She is meeting more and more people who no longer want to listen to the bad news and who are withdrawing and wanting a break. “But this break shouldn’t be too long, because through our voting behavior and our commitment we help shape society, and that’s why information is important. That’s why you shouldn’t retreat into your own little place where you don’t care about anything else.” , emphasized the 48-year-old.
“You can gain peace and distance from time to time, but you should stay well informed so that you can help shape democracy.” Rakers would like to concentrate more on her entrepreneurial activities in the future.
