This brief analyzes the coverage of Wall Street Journal quotes in German media. The US edition of the Wall Street Journal was quoted more than twice as many times in opinion-leading German media between January and June of 2005 than in the same period last year. It was the third most-quoted international news outlet in German media. With numerous exclusive news reports the Journal’s editorial staff in Europe and in the US successfully faced up to the challenge of declining circulation in international financial news media by becoming more important in agenda setting.
