Hamburger Abendblatt

The Lead Awards are for Germany's media professionals what the Oscars are for actors: the highest distinction one can receive. In December 2019, the jury of the prize, which has been awarded since 1993, honoured the best newspaper makers and editors-in-chief in Hamburg - and caused great excitement among Hamburg media. Particularly at the Hamburger Abendblatt: Editor-in-Chief Lars Haider was voted as “chief editor of the year" in the “regional newspaper" category for the first time and was overjoyed: "2019 was a year full of great ideas and projects at the Hamburger Abendblatt, starting with our podcasts and the filming of the basic law and ending with magazines about Udo Lindenberg, John Neumeier and Greta," he said.
