Hamburg (dpa) - Nach der Entscheidung der Verlage Axel Springer AG und Spiegel-Verlag, zur alten Rechtschreibung zurückzukehren, wird die Deutsche Presse-Agentur (dpa) die Meinung ihrer Kunden erfragen.
Dazu sagte Herlyn, dpa als Dienstleister werde sich «jetzt zeitnah ein Meinungsbild bei unseren Kunden machen».
Auf der Grundlage dieser Meinungsbildung werde dpa dann auch in Zusammenarbeit mit den anderen deutsch-sprachigen Nachrichtenagenturen eine Entscheidung fällen.
