Dieudonné ! Une Analyse Des Commentaires Dans Les Plus Grands Quotidiens De Qualité En Allemagne Et Au Luxembourg : Indicateurs Pour L’opinion Publique Dans Les Deux Pays, Réflexion Sur Le Choix De La Langue

Abstract

Two commentaries from the leading German and Luxembourg daily quality newspapers are examined in regard to the same event, the controversy about the French right-wing satirist Dieudonné. It can be shown that his positions are rejected by the newspaper comments in both countries, to a significant extent. The semiotic interpretation shows, however, that in Germany the rejection is obviously accepted by a large majority, whilst there seem to exist some differently thinking minorities, whereas such minority positions seem to be non-existent in Luxembourg.
