Sonntagsblick founds readers' council

 What the German tabloid Bild now has, the Sonntagsblick is also getting: a readers' council. It will be able to have a say in what the newspaper will look like in the future. It consists of 25 readers who are supposed to be representative of society: "Readers from all parts of the country, from many professions, young and old" are in demand, according to the latest Sobli edition. They meet twice a year and tell the editorial team what they like and don't like. They are promised a "direct influence" on the newspaper makers under boss Marc Walder. According to Sobli, work on the Readers' Council is free of charge - but Ringier will provide "food and drink" at each meeting. Interested parties can apply with immediate effect; those selected will be chosen by the Editor-in-Chief.
