Last but not least: Stefan Raab joins the fight for freedom

 Stefan Raab fights Dieter Bohlen and blows the whistle in the fight for freedom for Max Buskohl. Raab is demanding freedom for the singer Buskohl, who had to leave the RTL casting show "Deutschland sucht den Superstar" voluntarily due to differences with Dieter Bohlen. Raab wants to release him from his contract with RTL and let him perform on his show. Raab has already offered him asylum, along with insurance to cover financial penalties, but the singer did not accept the invitation. Which is why Raab is now taking it one step further and, in old RAF style, blowing the horn for a fight for freedom. Last week, he adorned his studio with banners such as "RTL, Max here, but quickly" and "Hopp, hopp, hopp, performance ban stop". Shortly after his introduction, he presented the motif that is at the center of his campaign: a photomontage that recreates the photo of the kidnapped Hannes-Martin Schleyer sent to the press by the RAF in 1977, but shows Max Buskohl and the letters RTL in the RAF machine gun logo. Buskohl appears to be holding a sheet of paper on which is handwritten: Prisoner of R.T.L. for 196 days.
Raab, a trained butcher, has never lacked for coarseness. And this fight is probably less about Bushkohl's freedom and more about the ratings battle between Raab and Bohlen. It cannot be ruled out that Max Buskohl, who is not even physically present, will be crushed between the two TV warhorses Bohlen and Raab, because every battle has its victims.
