Sddeutsche ZeitungThe Süddeutsche Zeitung is a quality German newspaper. It is published in Munich. Profile Although the title means literally "South German Newspaper", the Süddeutsche Zeitung is read throughout Germany (1.1 million readers daily) and boasts a relatively high circulation abroad. The editorial stance is center-left—leading some to joke that the SZ is the only opposition in the state of Bavaria, which has been governed by the conservative CSU party since 1949. The national edition features four sections: Politics, Culture, Economy and Sports. Editions sold in Munich and surrounding counties include a local news insert. History On October 6, 1945, five months after the end of World War II, the SZ was the first newspaper to receive a licence from the U.S. military administration of Bavaria. The first issue was published the same evening. The first article begins with: - For the first time since the collapse of the National Socialist government, a newspaper run by Germans is published in Munich. It is limited by the political necessities of our days, but it is not bound by censorship, nor by moral constraint.
The front page of the first issue can be read here (PDF). In spring 2004, SZ launched the Süddeutsche Bibliothek. Each week, one out of 50 famous novels of the 20th century was published as hardcover for 4,90 (approx. $ 6,-), available at certain newsstands and in book shops. Figures The circulation is 442,000, reaching over 1.1 million readers daily and making SZ the largest quality daily published in German. 40 correspondents report from Germany and abroad. Supplements - SZ Magazin (Friday), a magazine-style supplement
- Wochenende (Saturday), featuring longer articles and short stories for the weekend
- The TV programme (Tuesday) and an event guide (Thursday) are only included in the Bavarian edition.
