Ownership
Falter is a Vienna weekly news and city magazine founded in May 1977 by a left-alternative collective around Walter Martin Kienreich, Christian Fuchs and Armin Thurnher. It is published by the independent Falter Verlagsgesellschaft (Falter-Verlag), of which long-time editor and publisher Armin Thurnher is a co-proprietor. The publishing house remains privately held by its founders/editors rather than by any large media group, party or church.
Funding
Funded by newsstand and subscription sales, advertising, and its publishing/book business; it positions itself as an independent title not reliant on a corporate parent.
Affiliation & stance
Falter is editorially left-liberal and known for investigative and government-critical journalism. Because it is independently owned by its own journalists/founders with no party, state or corporate-group control, it is INDEPENDENT. The site's INDEPENDENT/LEFT classification is accurate.
