Julia Ruhs Joins Bild With Regular 'Meine Meinung' Column

The appointment marks a move into a defined opinion role at a commercial outlet following changes to her involvement with ARD's 'Klar'.

Overview

  • Bild confirms Ruhs will publish at least two opinion pieces per month on Bild.de starting in January under the column title “Meine Meinung.”
  • She continues to host BR-produced editions of ARD’s “Klar,” while NDR’s editions will be presented by Tanit Koch.
  • Bild leadership describes Ruhs as liberal‑conservative and analytically sharp, saying her column is intended to contribute to political opinion formation.
  • Ruhs alleges the NDR excludes views to the right of center and says she positions herself as center‑right while distancing herself from the AfD.
  • NDR staff had criticized “Klar” for lacking balance and strong emotionalization, and the broadcaster acknowledged communication errors over the changes.
