Kall and Stäheli leave the Board of the Publishers Association

 Tamedia CEO Martin Kall and Espace Media Group CEO Albert Polo Stäheli are stepping down from the presidency of the Publishers Association. This was announced on Thursday at the 2007 Publishers' Congress in Lucerne. The reason for this is that Tamedia and Espace Media now form a publishing house. It is therefore no longer justified for both to have a seat. Chairman of the Board of Directors Pietro Supino was unanimously elected to represent Tamedia. The Zurich-based media company will therefore once again be represented by the publisher in the Publishers Association. A further change at the top of the association results from the fact that AZ Medien publisher Peter Wanner will relinquish the chairmanship of the "External Relations" department. Association President Hanspeter Lebrument intends to take over this position and declare the department a presidential matter.
