The company also owns the following newspapers: Berliner Zeitung, Hamburger Morgenpost, Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger, Express, Kölnische Rundschau and Mitteldeutsche Zeitung.
In January 2015, following the Charlie Hebdo shooting in which the staff of a French satirical magazine were attacked after previously drawing the Islamic prophet Muhammad, the front page of the Berliner Kurier was a cartoon of Muhammad reading Charlie Hebdo in a bath of blood.
