The carousel of license applications continues to turn: LZ Medien also wants to make regional television. On Wednesday, the publishing house submitted an application to operate a new station in Central Switzerland called Tele 1. The operating company Tele 1 AG, in which LZ Medien Holding AG holds a majority stake, is currently being founded. The station is to bear the name Tele 1, as Central Switzerland is historically the first region in Switzerland, according to a press release. Tele 1's programming focuses on information and culture, with a strong emphasis on regional reports. The station is planning its magazines in collaboration with the University of Lucerne and the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts, among others.
Tele 1 wants to create 75 part-time positions. The training for this will be coordinated by the Swiss School of Journalism MAZ in Lucerne. The station's studios will be located in Lucerne. Some of the programs will also be produced at the Swiss Museum of Transport.
Until now, Tele Tell, which belongs to the AZ Medien Group, has been broadcasting in Central Switzerland. LZ Medien currently holds a minority stake of 6.5 percent in the TV station.
