Lutz Kinkel
Journalist. Lecturer. Ghost.
I work at the intersection of politics and media — as a journalist, lecturer, ghostwriter and moderator. I hold a PhD in history and spent eleven years at the German weekly stern, followed by seven years running the European Centre for Press and Media Freedom (ECPMF). My working language there was English.
Lectures & seminars
AI ethics in journalism and PR, populism and the public sphere, the art of the commentary.
Media literacy
Workshops in schools and teacher training; talks at universities and conferences.
Moderation
Panels, conferences, award ceremonies and talks — in German and English.
Books & ghostwriting
Co-authorship, ghostwriting and editorial advice for non-fiction and speeches.
This is a short English overview. The full site is currently available in German — for any inquiry, including ordering the PDF of my Riefenstahl study “Die Scheinwerferin”, just write to mail@lutz-kinkel.de.
