The Deutsche Shanghai Zeitung (German pronunciation:[ˈdɔʏtʃəˈʃaŋhaɪˈtsaɪtʊŋ]; transl. "German Shanghai Newspaper"; DSZ), later Der Ostasiatische Lloyd, was a German language newspaper published in Shanghai, China. That publication was associated with the Nazi Party.[1]
The newspaper was established on 27 September 1932.[2] The paper was owned and edited by Max Simon-Eberhard, a former army captain. Hartmut Walravens, author of "German Influence on the Press in China," said that the newspaper did not do well initially, but after Paul Huldermann, a professional journalist, took control, the performance improved.[3] The newspaper was renamed and reorganized in January 1936 so it could benefit from the reputation of the previous Ostasiatischer Lloyd.[3]
