As the sixth newspaper bundle - after the four-part newspaper jacket and the local section - the "focus" bundle will in future combine the editions of the St. Galler Tagblatt and its regional editions (Appenzeller Zeitung, Toggenburger Tagblatt, Tagblatt Thurgau, Wiler Zeitung, Der Rheintaler). The twelve-person "Focus" editorial team combines the previous culture, life, knowledge, media and travel sections. In future, it will cover these topics in a "more attractive" and "more concentrated" way, writes the St. Galler Tagblatt in a press release on Wednesday. A page with service and nightlife tips will in future conclude the Tagblatt, which has been modernized by newspaper designer Katja Hösli.
The new Tagblatt is now produced in a newsroom. The current edition of the newspaper is produced "from a single source" at a central desk, which not only allows for more efficient work, but should also free up journalistic resources for "more creative tasks".
The newly created online editorial team is also integrated into the newsdesk. This is updated according to the "online first" principle, but also contributes self-researched stories to the printed edition on an almost daily basis, the Tagblatt continues.
