Just two years ago, RTL Deutschland launched the new cross-media format “Stern Investigativ.” The results of the investigative research conducted are released simultaneously as a TV report on RTL, in the print magazine “Stern,” on various websites, and as a podcast. For “Stern Investigativ” the award-winning journalists Christian Esser and Manka Heise have brought several important stories to light – including going undercover at the Tesla plant in Grünheide in Brandenburg and, more recently, uncovering questionable practices at the famous Berlin hospital Charité.
Join the ACG for a discussion with Manka Heise, Leading Investigative Reporter at “Stern Investigativ,” about the stories she has covered, how she has covered them, and how she has chosen which stories to pursue.
