No Basler Zeitung am Sonntag for the time being

 It has not yet been decided whether the Basler Zeitung will also be published on Sundays in future. We will wait and see what the Mittelland Zeitung experiences, which will launch a seventh edition in mid-September. Matthias Hageman, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Basler Zeitung Medien, could not hide a certain skepticism as to whether a seventh edition would be successful in the market. Hagemann did not hide his skepticism. Reader research shows that the enthusiasm of subscribers to a daily newspaper to pay more for a seventh edition is limited, he told SDA. The concept is apparently in the drawer. If the Mittelland Zeitung (MZ) is successful with its model, the BaZ could quickly follow suit. If this is not the case, BMG has other projects in the pipeline.
