Phoenix (official way of writing according to transmitter: PHOENIX) is a public television station, which developed in co-operation of pool of broadcasting corporations and Second Channel of German Television. Its program consists of documentary films and/or reports, newscasts, event transmissions and discussion transmissions. Seat of the transmitter is Bonn. Responsible directors are Markus (director Second Channel of German Television) and Fritz Pleitgen (director of the WDR).

Program

For ones Phoenix takes over the 20-00-clock news of the day of the pool of broadcasting corporations as well as the today journal Second Channel of German Television with bearing language interpreters.

"The Phoenix flagship "of the current information is the transmission the day, which is radiated daily by 23:00 clock to 24:00 clock. By this length detailed reports and interviews are guaranteed.

In the context of the transmission locally live-transmissions of political events, public lectures of important personalities, press conferences as well as Bundestag and Upper House of Parliament meetings are shown.

In daily discussion and discussion rounds (for example "citizen of Berlin Phoenix round "with Gaby Dietzen and/or Anke "under the lime trees "with Christoph min-hope and/or Hartmann of the Tann) current topics with experts are deepened.

Besides Phoenix revived "the international ", which runs always Sundays around 12:00 clock, if the press club in first precipitates.

The rows historical debates and historical events Bonn journalist Helmut Illert take up important topics from the career/development of the Federal Republic of Germany.

Emergence

With the writing up of the initiative for the establishment of Phoenix to the Federal Chancellor at that time Helmut Kohl one flatters, which could not become generally accepted with demands after one "European parliament channel "approximately resistances from "the public ones ". There one was afraid the obvious suspicion and the possibility of actual political pressure of operating one "Helmut Kohl channel ".

The concrete suggestion too "PHOENIX - the event and documentation channel "came from the circle of the POOL OF BROADCASTING CORPORATIONS and Second Channel of German Television spectators and served a more general interest: Medium-political correction of system weaknesses in the TV-information transfer. That offered the chance to let "the parliament channel come up "in the suggested concept plausibly and the entitled information requirements, which were connected with it, to satisfy less open to attack in professional way.

On the part of the private transmitters the establishment of Phoenix was criticized as competition for the establishing section programs and as inadmissible expansion of the basic supplying obligation. In the meantime the opinion turned, and the basic supply of information is often attributed to Phoenix alone, against what the private transmitters would fulfill the supply of maintenance programs according to opinion many more than sufficiently.

First the transmitter was provisionally in Cologne accommodated, until it referred 2000 the modernized former Hauptstadtstudio Second Channel of German Television in Bonn.

Political adjustment

A selfavowed goal from Phoenix is to create a reconciliation for the information which are to be observed in realigning and magazine transmissions. The program is to correspond to a truthful illustration of the reality after the constitutional order of the public broadcast and TV organizations. One wants to achieve this goal with current reports and documentations.

The political position of the transmitter can be called 2005 in summary clearly conservative. Thus for example the numerous historical documentaries focus to the Second World War almost exclusively on suffering the German civilian population toward end of the war. Also the reporting was not coined/shaped to the Papal election 2005 of excessive journalistic distance, which into account one takes oneself with Phoenix as earnings/services.

Papal election 2005

Stephan Kulle coined/shaped great moment of the television on 19 April 2005 one "", as it already four minutes before the official publication of the choice of Joseph cardinal Ratzinger to the new Pope Benedikt XVI. from safe source of the election result and this message with Phoenix experienced announced premature.
