Fear in Times of Crisis: Heribert Prantl on Media, Power, and Hope

When crises shape everyday life and news intensifies uncertainty, the question of hope gains new urgency. On November 19, 2026, Prof. Dr. Heribert Prantl will speak in Landshut about media, power, manipulation, and the courage to remain realistic despite fear.

Between Fear and Hope

The evening focuses on a tension that many people feel: fear is part of the present, but hope opens a path through the seemingly impossible. Prantl describes hope not as the repression of difficult feelings, but as an attitude that also allows for doubt, despondency, and uncertainty.

Media, Power, and Manipulation

The focus is on the mechanisms of public opinion formation. As a lawyer, journalist, and publicist, Heribert Prantl combines political classification with long-standing experience in journalism. He has worked for many years in leading positions at the Süddeutsche Zeitung and now works as an author, columnist, and commentator.

An Evening for Political Exchange

The event is aimed at anyone who wants to better understand current crises and reflect on the influence of the media on societal debates. The event experience thrives on clear thoughts, pointed analysis, and an audience atmosphere that provides space for reflection and conversation.

Journalistic Experience and Awards

Heribert Prantl studied law, history, and philosophy, worked as a judge and public prosecutor, and joined the Süddeutsche Zeitung in 1988. For his journalistic work, he has received numerous awards, including the Geschwister-Scholl-Preis, the Kurt-Tucholsky-Preis, and the Erich-Fromm-Preis. His expertise shapes the event and contextualizes political developments from a journalistic and constitutional perspective.

Conclusion: Hope as a Counterforce

Visitors can expect an engaging evening about the effects of fear, the responsibility of the media, and the significance of hope in uncertain times. Those who wish to critically examine social developments and gain new perspectives on current crises will experience an enlightening lecture with a prominent publicist in Landshut.
