 Bild-Zeitung - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bild was founded by Axel Springer in 1952 and quickly became the best-selling newspaper, by a wide margin, not only in Germany, but in all of Europe.
At the height of left-wing terrorism around 1977, Bild took a strong stance that could be said to have contributed to the climate of fear and suspicion.
Böll's public words on the Bild's coverage of the Baader-Meinhof Gang activities in the early 1970es were: isn’t cryptofascist anymore, not fascistoid, but naked fascism, agitation, lies and dirt.

 Bild Lilly at Dolls and Toys Australia
A 1955 Bild Lilli (far left) with a 1959 Number One Barbie (left), the resemblance is amazing until you learn that she was the "inspiration" for the number one Barbie.
Together they designed and mass produced the Bild Lilly, originally she was 30cm tall (the same size as Barbie is now) and soon after was also available in a shorter 19cm (7 and a half inches) size.
There were many copy-cat clones made of the Bild Lilli as the molds used to create her were widely sold and used extensively by other toy manufacturers.

 Bild Lilli - Her History 1952-1960's
Lilli was originally a cartoon character created by German cartoonist Reinhard Beuthien for a "filler" in June 24, 1952 for the newspaper Bild-Zeitung in Hamburg, Germany.
In Billy Boy's book on Barbie he suggests that Bridget Bardot may have been the inspiration or another of the blonde bomb shells of that era, but I think they came after Bild Lilli and perhaps she was THEIR inspiration.
Later they were exported to several countries, even the USA (these have a doll stand with only "Lilli" on them, the regular stand says "Bild Lilli".

 Analysis: Queen's visit stirs polemic - (United Press International)
The 9 million-circulation daily Bild Zeitung newspaper has called on the queen to apologize for British aerial bombing of civilians, and in particular the devastating raids on Dresden where more than 35,000 Germans were killed when the city was destroyed.
The trip - Bild Zeitung said Monday - was a good opportunity for the 78-year-old monarch to "say a few suitable words of regret," about Dresden.
Their reaction, observed the Bavarian newspaper Suddeutsche Zeitung, "proves just how difficult relations are between the two countries." The authoritative Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung said the memory of two world wars still cast their shadow over German-British relations.

 BW Online May 20, 2002 Bild: A Bully Pulpit Up for Grabs
Still, no sane politician would pass up a chance to get a favorable mention in Bild Zeitung--"the picture newspaper." Its potent brew of right-wing politics, sports, and sex sells some 4 million copies a day, but the paper is read by 11 million people by the time it's been passed around.
Bild has mellowed since Springer's death in 1985, but all editorial staff still must pledge to uphold his basic principles, which include unwavering support for the U.S. and the free market.
Witness how Bild roughed up Wolfgang Schauble, then chairman of the center-right Christian Democrat Union, after he was implicated in a campaign financing scandal.

If the Palestinians end the [current] violence, we can talk about everything," Shoval told the Bild Zeitung.

On August, 1984 the popular West German weekly Bild-Zeitung announced that it was in possession of a twenty-minute videotape which showed Sakharov and Bonner "in their Gorky exile." "Most sequences were evidently taken in early and mid-June," said Bild.
Though Bild did not specify how it came by the videotape, no one doubted that the source was ultimately the KGB.
At the time of the videotape's appearance, Sakharov and Bonner were not yet reunited, nor had Bonner's sentence been confirmed by the special appeals court meeting in Gorky.

 Brett Marston: FREE SPEECH ACCORDING TO INSTA
This poll is an expression of a worrisome journalistic practice, one that has close historical parallels with the German experience with Axel Springer and the Bild Zeitung's self-described patriotic, anti-radical denunciation trip in the early 1970s.
The most famous depiction of Bild in action is the Lost Honor of Katharina Blum, Heinrich Boell's story made into a movie by Volker Schloendorff.
And Reynolds's view that the press must appear to be "patriotic" if it wants to safeguard free speech values seems a convenient justification for Bild-like efforts.
