Readers in Witzenhausen sharply criticize HNA reporting!
On Friday, September 28, 2025, the HNA bus was on the road at the weekly market in Witzenhausen to offer citizens a platform for their suggestions, praise and criticism. The editors Nicole Demmer, Evelyn Ludolph and William Abu El-Qumssan as well as volunteer Leon Kaiser were on site to capture the readers' voices. There was all sorts of material for discussion.
A central topic was the reporting on Björn Höcke, who attended Liana K.'s funeral. Gabriele Rübcke was critical of the iconic depiction of Höcke in images and questioned the HNA's approach to reporting on the AfD. Such comments demonstrate a strong interest among readers in transparent and responsible reporting.
Breakfast about station problems and local news
But it wasn't just politics that was a topic of conversation. Angela Klinge and Edith Kalka expressed dissatisfaction with the condition of the Witzenhausen train station. A lack of toilets and a non-working station clock are just some of the deficiencies that the two criticized. Klinge would also like to see more positive news on the front page of the newspaper to encourage readers.
Armin Homburg raised another point: the desolate condition of a house on Walburger Strasse that burned out five years ago. He felt that there was an urgent need for action here. Homburg also suggested a reduced subscription price for long-time readers - an idea that received a positive response from others in attendance.
What's next with the reporting?
The discussions demonstrated that readers have a high level of interest in their local newspaper and actively express their wishes. Gudrun Landgrebe, for example, criticized the choice of images in reports about village festivals, while Gardis von Gersdorff would like to see more reports about women in politics. Pharmacist Michael Schäfer, on the other hand, praised the HNA app and expressed the desire to expand the offering.
