59. We can see the extent to which historians tend to shy away from incorporating non-
Jewish media into their research in the bibliography of the relevant publications.
60. For example, see Leon Botstein, Judentum und Modernität: Essays zur Rolle der Juden in
der deutschen und österreichischen Kultur 1848 bis 1938 (Vienna: Böhlau, 1991).

64. Occasionally, media outlets with a Jewish publisher or owner or with Jewish jounalistic
staff are also counted among the Jewish press. Th
is was, for example, the case in an expert
opinion that formed part of an application that I submitted to the Austrian National
Bank to fund research on the topic “Jewish/non-Jewish points of contact in Vienna
around 1900.” Th is kind of a categorization, however, is not entirely free from anti-
semitic notions. An antisemitic perspective, for example, would classify a newspaper
that employed a Jewish journalist for a period of time as a Judenblatt (a “Jew paper”). See
