Her successor will be Lisa Ortgies, who is due to start at the beginning of next year, or in spring at the latest. Schwarzer said on the ZDF program Johannes B. Kerner on Thursday that she was looking forward to this, without naming her successor. Schwarzer herself wants to continue working for Emma: "I will continue to accompany Emma, I will also publish it, I will still be there.
