Opponents of the World Economic Forum in Davos, which starts today, distributed around 50,000 copies of a fake edition of the commuter newspaper 20 Minuten in the cities of Zurich, Bern, Basel and Winterthur today, according to their own statements.
As 20 Minuten Online reports, citing the website of the left-wing political organization Revolutionärer Aufbau, the four-page anti-Wef newspaper was circulated on Wednesday morning. "The fat years are over," headlines the paper, which is laid out in the 20 Minutes layout.
It is not the first time that 20 Minuten has been misused for political propaganda, writes the editorial staff of the commuter newspaper. "We formally distance ourselves from the fake supplement," says Marco Boselli, editor-in-chief of 20 Minuten. He added that the company reserves the right to take legal action.
