The Süddeutsche Zeitung (South German Newspaper), published in Munich, Bavaria, is one of the largest and most influential daily newspapers in Germany. The tone of SZ is mainly described as centre-left, liberal, social-liberal, progressive-liberal and social-democrat. It is considered one of Germany's newspapers of record. The Süddeutsche Zeitung was one of the first daily newspapers approved by the Allies after World War II and was first published on 6 October 1945. The newspaper is published by Süddeutsche Verlag in Munich. It is majority owned by investment holdings and a small part by the original publishing family, the Friedmann family. The editors-in-chief are Wolfgang Krach and Judith Wittwer. The chairman of the editorial board is Thomas Schaub. On 6 October 1945, five months after the end of World War II in Germany, the SZ was the first newspaper to receive a license from the U.S. military administration of Bavaria. The first issue was published the same evening, reportedly printed from the same presses that had printed Mein Kampf. Bernard B. McMahon, commander of the US intelligence control system, had previously been looking for a long time for non-Nazi licensees for a new German daily newspaper. He found them in the publishers August Schwingenstein, Edmund Goldschagg, and Franz Josef Schöningh. Each had pre-Nazi journalism experience, Goldschagg had been arrested by the Gestapo, and Schwingenstein had been a member of the Reichsbanner Schwarz-Rot-Gold. The founders announced that Süddeutsche Zeitung would be "a mouthpiece for all Germans who are united in their love of freedom, in their hatred of the totalitarian state, in their abhorrence of everything that is National Socialist". The most important competitor is the more conservative Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, founded in 1949. (wiki)
