AZ Medien Gruppe parts ways with Tele-M1 editor-in-chief

Heinz Lang, program director and editor-in-chief of Tele M1, is leaving the regional broadcaster. According to a press release, the departure will take place by mutual agreement at the end of November. The decisive factor was a difference of opinion regarding Lang's future tasks and responsibilities at the AZ Medien Group station. Heinz Lang's successor has not yet been appointed. Roland Baumgartner, Managing Director of Radio Argovia, and Bruno Hollenweger, Managing Director of TeleTell, will take over the management of the television station on an interim basis. Roland Baumgartner is responsible ad interim for the editorial and technical areas, Bruno Hollenweger for sales and marketing at Tele M1.
Lang had been working for Tele M1 since September 2001 and had already helped shape the regional television station as editor-in-chief during its start-up phase in 1994.
