In its 24 August 2017 edition "Stern" demonstrated its continued ability and willingness to generate cover-page controversy (and, for the purpose, to discard the restraints of "Nutzwertiger Journalismus"). A photo-shopped image depicted then United States President, Donald Trump, draped in the American flag while giving a stiff-armed Nazi salute. “Sein Kampf,” reads the headline, or “his struggle” – a reference to Adolf Hitler’s autobiographical manifesto, "Mein Kampf". The sub-headline reads: “Neo Nazis, Ku Klux Klan, racism: How Donald Trump fuelled hatred in America”.
