Roger Brunner becomes Valais correspondent
The new Valais-based domestic TV correspondent is Roger Brunner. He will begin his position at Swiss Radio and Television in November 2014.
Following his introduction in Zurich, he will start in Brig in mid-2015, replacing the two correspondents Silvia Graber and Ruth Seeholzer, who are taking on new roles at SRF. The 42-year-old Roger Brunner attended school in the Brig area and initially worked in the insurance industry, including in Geneva and Zurich. He entered journalism in 2002 at the Valais Messen. Since 2009, he has worked for Canal9 as Deputy Editor-in-Chief Valais and Head of the Upper Valais editorial team. Among other things, he produces VJ reports, but also moderates and leads political discussions. Roger Brunner: "After many years of reporting from the region, for the region, I am now looking forward to the new challenge of reporting from Valais for Switzerland."
