Growing up in West Germany during the 1980s and `90s, most of my childhood heroes (Astrid Lingdren, Peter Lustig, Armin Maiwald & Christoph Biemann) have stood the test of time. Peter Lustig, in parts comparable to Mr. Rogers to anyone from the US, fell victim to a public smear campaign by german Springer media corporation after he spoke oout against them. They took some statements he made in an interview totally out of context and tried to mark him as if he hated children.
