German Bishops Awarded Spiegel Fake-News Journalist

Of course the German Bishops gave him a award for promoting the death of Germany and of Europe.

The German oligarch media are in shock after Claas Relotius, 33, a star journalist with the German Der Spiegel, was exposed as an impostor.

The award-winning journalist made up stories, facts and even interviews in order to serve the oligarchs' narrative. Der Spiegel is a furiously anti-Catholic German magazine founded by a former Nazi journalist and Wehrmacht officer.

Not surprisingly, Relotius was also decorated by the [decadent] German bishops. Last year they awarded him with the 5000 Euro Katholischer Medienpreis [Catholic media award] for the schmaltzy July 2016 article “Königskinder” [The King's Children].

The article was geared toward stirring up anti-Syria sentiments and promoting mass-immigration. It told the lachrymose story of a refugee boy living on the street in Turkey who had to bury his dead mother and whose little sister was forced to work in a textile factory.

Now, Der Spiegel had to admit that the boy's mother is very much alive and that his sister never existed.

The U.S. fake-news broadcaster CNN named Relotius in 2014 "Journalist of the Year".

On December 28 the embarrassed German bishops announced that they withdrew the award and want the money back.

However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
