Walliser Bote: Editor-in-chief hands over the reins
The editor-in-chief of the Walliser Boten, Thomas Rieder, is handing over the reins of the editorial team. The 59-year-old wants to devote more time to journalistic tasks in future, the Mengis Group's Board of Directors wrote on Saturday.
Rieder has been editor-in-chief of the Walliser Bote since 2009. He took over the position from his brother Pius Rieder, having already worked as an editor at the Oberwalliser Zeitung for over 30 years. It is still unclear who will succeed Rieder. The process of finding a successor will be initiated immediately, writes the Board of Directors of the Mengis Group, which publishes the Walliser Boten. It regrets Rieder's departure. He has led the editorial team through the media change with great commitment. (SDA)
