The free newspaper News will be published with a slightly refreshed look from Tuesday, June 2, 2009. According to a press release from the publishing house Tamedia, the front page will be redesigned to emphasize the connection with the Tages-Anzeiger, the Berner Zeitung and the Basler Zeitung. The News headline will be centered, while the lettering of the three newspapers that publish the commuter paper will be more prominent and positioned above the News headline. The new design is intended to give the editorial team more scope for page design. In addition, advertisements can be placed to the left of the headline.
In August 2009, the editorial team of the free newspaper News will move into a joint newsroom with Newsnetz. A first step has already been taken: previously you could access the newspaper's e-paper via Newsprint.ch, but now you will be taken directly to Newsnetz. From August, the newsroom will be directly linked to the Tages-Anzeiger editorial ship. Collaboration between the editorial teams, which will remain independent, will then be gradually expanded. There are plans to incorporate content from Newsnetz into the commuter newspaper News. Many had expected Tamedia to withdraw the News title from the market following the discontinuation of the competitor newspaper .ch. However, there are no signs of this so far.
