"Solothurner Tagblatt" expands eastwards
Starting in June, the local section of the "Solothurner Tagblatt" will include a page dedicated to the Thal and Gäu administrative districts.
The "Solothurner Tagblatt" is expanding its editorial offering in the canton of Solothurn. From June, the local section of the newspaper will be supplemented with a page for the districts of Thal and Gäu. The editorial team has been expanded by 160 full-time equivalents to cover the two districts. It now comprises 16 editors. The Espace Media Groupe launched the "Solothurner Tagblatt" in the western part of the canton in the fall of 2001 as the head paper of the "Berner Zeitung". It thus entered the home territory of the "Solothurner Zeitung", which is now part of the "Mittellland Zeitung" network under the aegis of the "Aargauer Zeitung". In 2004/2005, the "Solothurner Tagblatt" achieved a certified circulation of 5010 subscribed copies. The BZ headline paper is therefore above the targets set by the publisher and editorial team, as reported by Espace Media Groupe.
