Vogt-Schild Medien becomes Solothurner Zeitung
Vogt-Schild Medien AG (Solothurner Zeitung) was renamed Solothurner Zeitung AG by the Annual General Meeting on June 1, 2010. Since March 2009, the Solothurner Medienhaus has been wholly owned by AZ Medien (Aargauer Zeitung).
The renaming is intended to emphasize the proximity to the newspaper with the longest tradition in the canton of Solothurn, the Solothurner Zeitung, as AZ Medien announced on Tuesday. The Solothurner Zeitung was founded in 1907. It has been part of the Mittelland Zeitung (MZ) group since 2002.
