Criticism of late media reporting[edit]
Several media outlets at first did not cover the story and, according to Jörg Luyken, only started reporting on the incidents on 5 January, after a wave of anger on social media made covering them unavoidable.[49] This delay was criticised by several politicians, including Hans-Peter Friedrich.[203] The public television channel ZDF later acknowledged that they had failed to report on the incidents despite having sufficient knowledge to do so.[204][205]

ZDF later called the delay in reporting a "clear misjudgment", and said since then, it has been "over-whelmed with hate and anger".[187] This has reinforced discontent previously held by parts of the German public with news coverage relating to the European migrant crisis, as well as a readiness to support the idea of the "Lügenpresse" (literally lying press).[187][206]

The delay in reporting on the assaults in the media lead to accusations that the authorities and the media attempted to ignore or cover up the attacks to avoid criticism against the current asylum and migration policy of the government.[1][207][208] The BBC's Gavin Hewitt wrote, "What has fuelled the sense of crisis is the suspicion - now widely held - that the German establishment is not telling the truth."[187]

1. Pre-compile it a bit to shrink it (not really a change)?
2. Create yet another extensible markup language*
3. Another language altogether - modeled as C-like or what?
4. Rely totally on emoticons
