Commenting on yesterday’s Echo award for the rap duo Kollegah-Farid Bang, Christoph Heubner, Executive Vice President of the International Auschwitz Committee said in Oswiecim/Auschwitz:

"That was an eerie event. It was like watching a nightmare on TV. Thank you to all members of the audience who made their position clear by whistling and booing. Following the blatant malfunctioning of the ethics council, which first made it possible for anti-Semitic duo to receive the award, the Echo is now morally defunct, and it makes one wonder what on earth is possible in Germany."
