''Der Tagesspiegel'' (meaning literally "The Daily Mirror"; motto: ''"rerum cognoscere causas"'', or "to know the causes of things") is a classical liberal German daily newspaper. It has regional correspondent offices in Washington D.C. and Potsdam. It is the only major newspaper in the capital to have increased its circulation—now 148,000—since re-unification. ==History and profile== Founded on 27 September 1945 by Erik Reger, Walther Karsch, and Edwin Redslob the ''Tagesspiegel's'' main office is based in Berlin〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.voxeurop.eu/en/content/source-information/34121-der-tagesspiegel )〕 at Askanischer Platz in the district of Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg, less than a mile from Potsdamer Platz and the former location of the Berlin Wall. For more than 45 years, ''Der Tagesspiegel'' was owned by an independent trust. In 1993, in response to an increasingly competitive publishing environment, and to attract investments required for technical modernization, such as commission of a new printing plant, and improved distribution, it was bought by the Georg von Holtzbrinck Publishing Group. Its current publisher is Dieter von Holtzbrinck with editors in chief Stephan-Andreas Casdorff and . Lorenz Maroldt was noted for using the unfortunate phrase 'entartete' (degenerated) Werkstatt der Kulturen, when describing a multi-ethnic cultural institution in Berlin.〔(Erinnerung teilen ist schwer ) ''taz.de''. 3 September 2009.〕 Pierre Gerckens, Giovanni di Lorenzo and Hermann Rudolph are editors of the newspaper. Some of the notable writers include Bas Kast and Harald Martenstein. The paper's main readership is in the western half of the city, due to the 1948 blockade having stopped its circulation in East Berlin and Brandenburg. The paper has recently been redesigned, introducing more color and a clearer typeface. In 2005 it was awarded the ''World's Best-Designed Newspapers'' Award by the ''Society for News Design'' in New York. It is owned by Verlag Der Tagesspiegel GmbH, a member of the Georg von Holtzbrinck Publishing Group, and associated with the ''Wall Street Journal''. In 2009, Dieter von Holtzbrinck bought ''Der Tagesspiegel'' and ''Handelsblatt'' from Holtzbrinck.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.eurotopics.net/en/home/medienindex/media_articles/?frommedia=549 )〕 From 2005 to 2007, American journalist Michael Scaturro edited the English-language version of ''Der Tagesspiegel'', which was known as ''The Berlin Paper''.〔(Medien mit Steingart auf dem Sofa ) ''Welt''〕 In 2007 and 2008 ''Der Tagesspiegels Washington D.C. correspondent, Christoph von Marschall, was noted in both Germany and the United States for his coverage of Barack Obama's presidential campaign. He wrote a book entitled ''Barack Obama – Der schwarze Kennedy''. The literal translation of its German title is "Barack Obama. The Black Kennedy".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Barack Obama - The Black Kennedy?! )〕 His book was a best seller in Germany, where other commentators had also compared the two Americans.〔(Germany’s Got a Crush on Obama ), The Caucus: New York Times politics blog, 6 January 2008〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Der Tagesspiegel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
