Company and Editorial Staff
Spiegel Online is run by Spiegel Online GmbH. Like manager-magazin.de and Quality Channel, this corporation is part of SPIEGELnet GmbH, which is a sister company of the publishing house. The editorial offices of Spiegel Online and Der Spiegel print magazine are separate operations, each with their own location, authors, and content, though a few articles continue to be shared in both media. Spiegel Online has a track record of profitability. Regular staff includes some eighty people in the Hamburg headquarters, complemented by freelancers, SPON's Berlin office, and bureaus in other German cities and abroad. The site also draws on input from a variety of news agencies, like AFP, AP, dpa and Reuters. Rüdiger Ditz has been serving as chief editor since 2008, first with co-chief Wolfgang Büchner, then as the sole person at the helm from 2009 to the present day (early 2013 at the time of writing).

Famous quotes containing the words company, editorial and/or staff:
“All I can tell you with certainty is that I, for one, have no self, and that I am unwilling or unable to perpetrate upon myself the joke of a self.... What I have instead is a variety of impersonations I can do, and not only of myself—a troupe of players that I have internalised, a permanent company of actors that I can call upon when a self is required.... I am a theater and nothing more than a theater.”
—Philip Roth (b. 1933)
“I have been in the editorial business going on fourteen years, and it is the first time I ever heard of a man’s having to know anything in order to edit a newspaper.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“In public buildings set aside for the care and maintenance of the goods of the middle ages, a staff of civil service art attendants praise all the dead, irrelevant scribblings and scrawlings that, at best, have only historical interest for idiots and layabouts.”
—George Grosz (1893–1959)
