Addressing the German ``market'', the search engine takes the URL of a German piece of online news as input and retrieves relevant press releases of the German police. Comparing different query-by-document strategies in a TREC-style evaluation on 105 topics, we show that our system is able to accurately identify relevant press releases if there are any. %@ 978-3-030-45442-5
