Mittelstand commonly refers to a group of stable business enterprises in Germany, Austria and Switzerland that have proved successful in enduring economic change and turbulence. The term is difficult to translate and may cause confusion for non-Germans. It is usually defined as a statistical category of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs; German: kleine und mittlere Unternehmen or German: KMU) with annual revenues up to 50 million Euro and a maximum of 500 employees.

I use the term __“efficacy” to describe the quality or virtue that the Politics journalists took to be the mark of a good and worthy journalist in these circumstances—that is, the ability to handle one’s news assignments in a way that effectively achieved the ends and outcomes that needed to be achieved in order for one’s newsmaking project to continue.__ I examine three reportorial skills that the Politics journalists cultivated to make themselves more efficacious newsmakers. These are, first, the ability to identify __“doable”__ (keyi zuo de) news items, topics that are likely to result in publishable articles; second, the ability to approach the news reporting process __“as a game”__; and, third, the ability to bend the rules of the news reporting process to make one’s assignments __easier to complete__.
