			=== Takeover by the families Ippen and Rempel ===
			The ''Frankfurter Rundschau'' and local newspaper “[[Frankfurter Neue Presse]]” were taken over by the Newspaper Holding Hessen, ZHH in spring 2018. The ZHH is majority owned by the [[Ippen Media\|Ippen publishing group]] and the MDV media group of the [[Giessen]] publishing family Rempel ("[[Gießener Allgemeine]]").<ref>{{Cite web \|title=Verlagsgruppe Ippen: Chefredakteur Thomas Kaspar verlässt "Frankfurter Rundschau" - HORIZONT \|url=https://www.horizont.net/medien/nachrichten/verlagsgruppe-ippen-chefredakteur-thomas-kaspar-verlaesst-frankfurter-rundschau-216480 \|access-date=2024-01-05 \|website=www.horizont.net \|language=de}}</ref>

			In the summer of 2023, the newspaper's employees will contact Ippen. In an open letter they wrote: “As a left-liberal newspaper, we stand up for justice in our articles. We report on wage inequality, labor disputes, gender equality and social politics.” However, there is “enormous injustice in the pay of editorial members”.<ref>{{Cite web \|last=Thorwarth \|first=Katja \|title=FR-Belegschaft mit Offenem Brief an Ippen: „Enorme Ungerechtigkeit“ bei der Bezahlung - Frankfurter Rundschau \|url=https://www.journal-frankfurt.de//journal_news/Politik-10/Frankfurter-Rundschau-FR-Belegschaft-mit-Offenem-Brief-an-Ippen-Enorme-Ungerechtigkeit-bei-der-Bezahlung-41173.html \|access-date=2024-01-05 \|website=Journal Frankfurt}}</ref> In December 2023, a conflict over uniform pay for FR employees escalated. FR employees have been demanding a collective agreement for months, but management wanted to avoid it. Negotiations with the ver.di and DJV unions were broken off without result. Ippen increased the editor's salary across the board and viewed this as an enormous concession. Nevertheless, the publisher remained well below the collective bargaining agreement for daily newspapers.<ref>{{Cite web \|last=Reisin \|first=Andrej \|date=2023-12-10 \|title=Ippen-Verlag kündigt der „Frankfurter Rundschau“ die Zukunft \|url=https://uebermedien.de/90702/ippen-verlag-kuendigt-der-frankfurter-rundschau-die-zukunft/ \|access-date=2024-01-05 \|website=Übermedien \|language=de-DE}}</ref>

	Amid speculation on DDVG's complaints about too friendly articles on the new left party [[The Left (Germany)\|Die Linke]] and its plan to sell the majority of its shares (see article in the newspaper ''[[Junge Welt]]'' from 30 August 2007) Wolfgang Storz's term as editor-in-chief ended abruptly on 16 May 2006. The appointed next editor-in-chief was Uwe Vorkötter (effective 1 July 2006). Only a few days later, on 18 July 2007, the DDVG announced that it would sell 50 percent plus one share to the independent publishing company [[M. DuMont Schauberg]] based in [[Cologne]], Germany. Today, DuMont Schauberg holds 50 percent plus one share, the DDVG owns 40 percent and the Karl-Gerold-Foundation holds 10 percent of the newspaper.

			=== Takeover by the families Ippen and Rempel ===
			The ''Frankfurter Rundschau'' and local newspaper “[[Frankfurter Neue Presse]]” were taken over by the Newspaper Holding Hessen, ZHH in spring 2018. The ZHH is majority owned by the [[Ippen Media\|Ippen publishing group]] and the MDV media group of the [[Giessen]] publishing family Rempel ("[[Gießener Allgemeine]]").<ref>{{Cite web \|title=Verlagsgruppe Ippen: Chefredakteur Thomas Kaspar verlässt "Frankfurter Rundschau" - HORIZONT \|url=https://www.horizont.net/medien/nachrichten/verlagsgruppe-ippen-chefredakteur-thomas-kaspar-verlaesst-frankfurter-rundschau-216480 \|access-date=2024-01-05 \|website=www.horizont.net \|language=de}}</ref>

			In the summer of 2023, the newspaper's employees will contact Ippen. In an open letter they wrote: “As a left-liberal newspaper, we stand up for justice in our articles. We report on wage inequality, labor disputes, gender equality and social politics.” However, there is “enormous injustice in the pay of editorial members”.<ref>{{Cite web \|last=Thorwarth \|first=Katja \|title=FR-Belegschaft mit Offenem Brief an Ippen: „Enorme Ungerechtigkeit“ bei der Bezahlung - Frankfurter Rundschau \|url=https://www.journal-frankfurt.de//journal_news/Politik-10/Frankfurter-Rundschau-FR-Belegschaft-mit-Offenem-Brief-an-Ippen-Enorme-Ungerechtigkeit-bei-der-Bezahlung-41173.html \|access-date=2024-01-05 \|website=Journal Frankfurt}}</ref> In December 2023, a conflict over uniform pay for FR employees escalated. FR employees have been demanding a collective agreement for months, but management wanted to avoid it. Negotiations with the ver.di and DJV unions were broken off without result. Ippen increased the editor's salary across the board and viewed this as an enormous concession. Nevertheless, the publisher remained well below the collective bargaining agreement for daily newspapers.<ref>{{Cite web \|last=Reisin \|first=Andrej \|date=2023-12-10 \|title=Ippen-Verlag kündigt der „Frankfurter Rundschau“ die Zukunft \|url=https://uebermedien.de/90702/ippen-verlag-kuendigt-der-frankfurter-rundschau-die-zukunft/ \|access-date=2024-01-05 \|website=Übermedien \|language=de-DE}}</ref>
