  Deutsche Nationalzeitung - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Die Deutsche Nationalzeitung (DNZ, German National Newspaper) is a weekly neofascist newspaper, published by Gerhard Frey, who also founded the far right Deutsche Volksunion (German People's Union) in 1971.
The DNZ, used as the Deutsche Volksunion's party organ, espouses many of the views held by The Republicans (Germany) (Die Republikaner), but it goes one step further in tacitly supporting violence against asylum seekers and foreign workers.
Frey has sought to distance himself from pro-Nazi sentiments while simultaneously insisting that most Germans want to live in a racially pure country.
