In February 2018, he first started at "Nebelspalter" as a producer, Weibel said. After the departure of Marco Ratschiller, he was editor-in-chief of the magazine until the end.

In December 2020, the "Nebelspalter" publishing house had been taken over by a group of investors including Markus Somm. In 2021, an online portal was launched in addition to the magazine.

For the time being, the Zurich-based "Nebelspalter" publishing house did not respond to an SDA request for comment.
