Loved/Loathed Journalists

I haven't made a list for quite some time. Here is one of Swiss journalists, which were able to stick to my memory:

• Max Frenkel (Bright Star)
  A master of his trade who is able to handle his quill like a foil or like a Zweihänder, whatever is most suitable. He is the only journalist who made me change my point of view by 180° (E.g. he made a zealot of the Swiss federalism). Unfortunately, he's now a pensioner, but still maintains a column in the NZZ am Sonntag.
• Constantin Seibt (Whirlwind)
  Either absolutely boring (columns) or astonishingly brilliant (political portraits). Seibt is everything but lukewarm.
• Max Küng (Soul Mate)
  There is nobody writing better about trivia - i.e. the things in my life that really count.
• Michèle Roten (The Big Hope)
  Still a student, but very promising. Roten wings my hope for future reading pleasures,
• Simone Meier (Lost Hope)
  Started a promising daily column, but wrote herself into oblivion. Her newest project (a soap opera) proves that there is something worse than tiresome.
• Mark van Huisseling (Insomnia Cure)
  Proves that one can't repeat a brilliant idea endlessly. He is long since dead.
• Jürg Wildberger (Charon)
  A chief editor. If he takes over this post at a magazine, it's doomed.
