Susanne Daubner is a longtime presenter on Tagesschau, Germany's main television news programme. A clip of her announcing cringe as the 2021 Youth Word of the Year spread widely on German social media, because the slang term sounded unusually out of place in formal news style. The moment was clipped, remixed and reused far beyond the original broadcast, turning the single word into a standalone reaction. It remains popular in German meme edits whenever a situation calls for a dry, official sounding judgement on something embarrassing.

Short clip of Tagesschau presenter Susanne Daubner saying cringe for the Youth Word announcement, used as a German meme reaction for awkward moments.
This is a very short voice clip of German news presenter Susanne Daubner pronouncing the word cringe in her serious Tagesschau delivery. The contrast is the whole joke: a formal, deadpan newsreader voice saying a slang youth word completely straight. It lands instantly as secondhand embarrassment, because the tone sounds like an important announcement while the word itself signals something awkward and embarrassing. Creators use that mismatch to puncture a cringey moment without adding any explanation, letting the dry delivery do the reaction for them.
