The delegation of the Bund Rescue Committee met with representatives of Espace Media and Tamedia and asked them to examine options for preserving the Bund. For example, the move towards a weekly newspaper or a purely online newspaper.

Tamedia and Espace Media were not very optimistic about a short-term solution. They explained that they were not aiming for "therapy for the next twelve months", but wanted to make decisions with a timeframe of ten years. After the daily newspapers had lost 11 percent of their sales in the last 15 years, the publisher Tamedia assumed that the decline in advertising sales and readership would continue. This is mainly due to commuter newspapers and the Internet.
From the perspective of Espace Media and Tamedia, all of their media must be economically independent. However, this has not been the case with the Confederation for at least twelve years.
