Handelsblatt
Handelsblatt is a German business daily based in Düsseldorf, founded in 1946 and known for its authoritative coverage of German and European economic policy. While it covers the US and Donald Trump with neutral critical distance, its coverage of Iran and Jeffrey Epstein is notably adversarial, with 25 and 23 headlines respectively framed skeptically or as scandal.
