Der Tagesspiegel
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Der Tagesspiegel ("The Daily Mirror"; motto: "rerum cognoscere causas", or "to know the causes of things") is a liberal German daily newspaper. Founded on 27 September 1945, the Tagesspiegel is based in Berlin, a short distance from the former location of the Berlin Wall. It is the only major newspaper in the capital to have increased its circulation—now 148,000—since re-unification. Despite this, it is still associated with the western half of the city, due to the 1948 blockade having stopped its circulation in East Berlin and Brandenburg. The paper has recently redesigned, introducing more color and a clearer typeface. In 2005 it was awarded the World's Best-Designed Newspapers Award by the Society for News Design in New York. It is owned by Verlag Der Tagesspiegel GmbH, a member of the Georg von Holtzbrinck Publishing Group, and associated with the Wall Street Journal.
