MFE bid for ProSieben must not negatively impact Germany, says Berlin
BERLIN, July 28 (Reuters) - MFE-MediaForEurope (MFE)'s bid for ProSiebenSat.1 must not negatively impact Germany, a government spokesperson said on Monday.
"A majority shareholding by MFE should not lead to a restriction of journalistic and economic independence and should not jeopardise Germany as a business location," the spokesperson said.
"Media power is never neutral - whoever buys it bears political responsibility," he said.
