Tele Ostschweiz reacts calmly to new competition

Tele Top has applied for the license to serve the Eastern Switzerland TV coverage area under its new brand, Tele Säntis. This puts it in direct competition with Tele Ostschweiz. There, officials took the competitor’s move in stride on Friday.

 Tele Top has applied for a license for the TV coverage area of Eastern Switzerland under the new Tele Säntis brand. It is thus competing with Tele Ostschweiz, which has submitted an application for the same area. Tele Ostschweiz (TVO) was relaxed about the competitor's attack on Friday. TVO's chances of obtaining a license for the cantons of St. Gallen, both Appenzells and parts of Thurgau are good, explained André Moesch, Head of Electronic Media at St. Galler Tagblatt AG, when asked by SDA.
The experience factor speaks for Tele Ostschweiz: TVO has been producing a TV program for precisely this region for nine years. The independence of TVO is also guaranteed, said Moesch.
