Insults flew between the chief complainant and editor of Emma magazine, Alice Schwarzer, 35, ("Male perfidy," said she), and Stern Editor Henri Nannen, 64, ("Joyless gray skirts," said he). During one session in a Hamburg court, Nannen stirred a row when he whisked out huge cheesecake photos of two of the plaintiffs, one showing Actress Erika Pluhar in short shorts and boots, the other from an old movie portraying Film Director Margarethe von Trotta stark naked and making love to a man on the roof...
