New head chef for Migros

Magazine The interim head of the "Shopping & Food" department at Migros magazine, Christine Kunovits, is to become editor-in-chief of Saisonküche. 41-year-old copywriter, concept developer and long-standing editor of Annabelle is to make the cooking magazine, which is also published by the orange giant, "even more journalistic" from January, according to Marius Hagger. According to the head of Migros Media, there were a good dozen suitable candidates for the position, "including some men." Hagger describes the main task of the hitherto semi-independent successor to Ingrid Schindler, who will remain associated with the magazine as an author, as "some content and design optimizations" - in the trilingual print title as well as on its Internet offshoot. Although these measures planned for the second half of 2005 are more than just touch-ups, they are by no means an actual relaunch. Marius Hagger: "Our seasonal cuisine is already too well done and positioned for that."
