Luzerner Nachrichten without its own front page in future

 The daily newspaper Luzerner Nachrichten, which was launched by the Zofinger Tagblatt last September, has no longer had its own front page since Monday. It is published as the fifth edition of the Zofinger Tagblatt and has its own logo on the front page. "The reasons are mainly logistical," said Editor-in-Chief Beat Kirchhofer when asked by Werbewoche. "In the past few months, we have sometimes had quite a few problems with timeliness due to printing and distribution logistics. This should now improve." Like the Zofinger Tagblatt, the Luzerner Nachrichten is part of the Mittelland Zeitung association and has to fit into its distribution structure. Sonntag LN", the Sunday edition of Luzerner Nachrichten, will continue to appear with its own front page. Luzerner Nachrichten was launched last September with a circulation of 1,300 copies and a five-person editorial team (see
). The newspaper is aimed at residents in the Willisau district. According to Kirchhofer, the aim is to expand coverage of the entire canton of Lucerne in future. "We already cover the regional area of Willisau, but we still need to increase our cantonal coverage," says the editor-in-chief.
