Jan Böhmermann and Markus Lanz clearly clashed during a panel discussion.
Controversial point: The ZDF guest list on the subject of Corona.
Hamburg - The two ZDF presenters Jan Böhmermann and Markus Lanz clashed during a panel discussion on “Zeit” with the host and “Zeit” editor-in-chief Giovanni di Lorenzo.
The topic was the corona reporting.
Böhmermann made violent accusations against Lanz regarding the guest cast on his show.
Lanz didn't let that sit on him.

In the course of a heated debate, Böhmermann accused his colleague of the moderators that he had offered a big stage to people whose opinions were essentially "saturated with misanthropy".
Specifically, Böhmermann was also concerned with the virologists Alexander Kekulé and Hendrik Streeck, whom Lanz had invited several times to his ZDF program.
Böhmermann criticizes this invitation, because "from a technical point of view you really say: This is not a good idea".
Lanz asks directly who is saying that.
Böhmermann answers vaguely: "The people who have a clue" and refers to conversations with "scientists who have been researching this topic for years".
Böhmermann subsequently describes Kekulé as a “Halle microbiologist who has not published anything in this area” and suddenly appeared.
Lanz countered Böhmermann directly: "From your mouth, Jan"
Böhmermann advised that one should ask oneself whether such people deserved such a large stage.
Lanz became clear: "The answer is: Yes!" For years, Alexander Kekulé had advised the Federal Government on exactly the same questions that he had asked him about in his program.
And Hendrik Streeck is director of virology in Bonn and has a worldwide reputation, especially in the area of HIV.
On a large scale, Böhmermann accused Lanz of deliberately creating provocative programs with these invitations.
Lanz strongly disagreed with this. That is not the principle of his mission. Especially with the accusation that the invitations only wanted to generate attention and riot, Lanz countered and countered: “From your mouth, Jan, who put words into his mouth in connection with someone like Mr Erdogan, where I would say: Do you have to do it like that? To catch the accusation that the riot is: I think that's steep ”.
