It looks like we are quoted extensively.

On line translations are not very helpful. So if anybody can read German, I would love to hear your comments about the article.
Just read the article. It seems to be a standard and honest review of TV and environs. Definitely agree with her that the people here seem more happy than the average German you see on the street there.
