The deal includes the supply of content for Google's News Showcase for five years and for a similar Facebook platform for three years, he said. The Sydney-based company now expects the publishing unit to grow by 30 to 40 million Australian dollars (around 12 to 17 million Swiss francs) in fiscal 2022. Nine Entertainment did not initially disclose further details.

Google will also expand its marketing activities in the Nine network, wrote the editor of the newspapers Australian Financial Review, The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald citing people familiar with the matter.

In Australia, Internet platforms have had to pay for content that brings users and advertising revenue to their platforms since the end of February, following a media law that has been sharply criticized by U.S. tech companies. Australia was the first country in the world to establish a corresponding code.

Around the globe, governments have been looking for ways to curb the influence of U.S. tech giants for years. Previously, Facebook and Google had already signed agreements with Rupert Murdoch's News Corp. (SDA)

According to studies, only 2 to 5 percent of people in Switzerland feel "beautiful". Perfecthair.ch thinks it is high time to change this fact. But what constitutes the beauty of a person? Who is responsible for setting the standard of what is considered beautiful and what is not? And what is the power of beauty? These are the questions addressed by the online store's current campaign. It calls on people to say to themselves and to the whole world: "I am beautiful". Because PerfectHair.ch has long been about much more than "just" hair.

The message is clear: the limits of perception of (one's own) beauty seem to be fixed. In an age of filters and perfect social media photos, professional and gracefully edited glossy images and top model hair blowing in slow motion in TV commercials, many people strive to be just as perfect. What seems to be forgotten is that this sets standards that are impossible for most to achieve.

Beauty is created in our minds

The movement "Beauty without limit" calls for more self-confidence and self-love, to be proud of each of its external features, because it is precisely these that make a person interesting. The current campaign aims to overcome the limits of beauty in one's own mind and make one's own beauty appear in a new light.

Therefore, the protagonists of the new spot are not models or actors, but customers of PerfectHair.ch, who can stand one hundred percent behind the message and have applied via video for participation.

But why does an online store that sells beauty products call on people to also feel naturally beautiful? In the campaign, Perfecthair.ch walks the fine line between the messages "we have the products to feel beautiful or even more beautiful" and "emphasize your naturalness, because you are beautiful just as you are. The protagonists were made up very naturally and staged authentically, and they all bring their own story with them, which is told in addition to the TV and radio campaign via YouTube, website and social media.

PerfectHair.ch puts people in their original beauty at the center of interest with the "Beauty without limit" campaign.

In addition to various TV commercials, print and online ads, the layout of the PerfectHair.ch website is undergoing a makeover. At the same time, the PerfectHair.ch logo is supplemented with the claim "Beauty without limit". With the hashtag #BeautyOhneLimit, PerfectHair.ch is also launching a social media challenge to get a movement going.

Zurich's Kreis 4 - a den of iniquity and a place of rebellion? Or is the former workers' quarter rather a melting pot of cultures, a night owl and party paradise - or even a school of life?

59 people who live and work in Zurich's Kreis 4 - or even grew up in "Chreis Cheib" - talk about themselves and tell about their neighborhood, which has as many facets as they do: The party maker, the salon owner, DJ women and a tattoo artist, pastors, men's boutique operators, contact bar bosses, the police investigator, the celebrity hairdresser, the punk pioneer and the porn princess, store owners, bouncers, travesty stars and women who fight their way through and gain respect in their own way.

Among them are prominent faces like actor Joël Basman, Dominique Rinderknecht, Tamy Glauser and lawyer Valentin Landmann. They all say why they love their "Chreis Cheib" so much - and tell all kinds of astonishing stories about what they have experienced on and around Langstrasse, which is known as the "boulevard of the have-nots". Cheibe Zürcher consists of 59 short portraits of protagonists of the most un-Swiss place in Switzerland.

Photographer and filmmaker Nicolas Yves Aebi and m&k/Advertising Week-Christoph Soltmannowski have rented a pop-up studio in the middle of 2019. The idea for this project and film arose spontaneously on site. Editor Sven Prausner, who is also active in the neighborhood as a DJ, edited the interviews to a length suitable for cinema. The film was made independently, without any subsidies. In addition, a "Cheibe Zurich" merchandising line launched for the film.

Starting Thursday, the film will be shown every Thursday and Friday, 18:30 and 21:00 at the former erotic cinema Roland at Langstrasse 111 in the middle of Zurich's Chreis Cheib. Tickets are available at the Cheibe Zurich Ticket Shop and with Ticketcorner available. A Mexican Food Truck in the parking lot behind the cinema will provide food for the guests.

"Show me your Linkedin profile and I'll tell you who you are": Often, one look is enough to see how much a person cares about his or her image in social media. One discovers female politicians in stiff deux-pièces, professors in polo shirts, and managers in confirmation suits - and underneath, a tired description of their current position.

Maria Schwery is overcome with yawning, especially when zapping on Linkedin. That's why she teamed up with photographer Sandra Stampfli and copywriter Regina Münstermann.

The scenographers have put together a service package for people who want to present themselves in an attractive virtual way. The package includes styling, a photo, a claim, a quote and a crisp short description for the curriculum vitae.

Newsletters are enjoying steady popularity: more than 70 percent of Swiss people have subscribed to at least one. The Migros Magazine newsletter has just under 160,000 users in German- and French-speaking Switzerland.

Pop's digital campaign celebrates Mondays and stages the newsletter's variety of topics in a playful and light-hearted way.

Billeter has been working for Swiss radio and television since August 1997. He is currently on duty as a commentator for the live games of the Ice Hockey World Championship in Riga. The 49-year-old sports journalist became known to the general public as a presenter of "Sportpanorama" and numerous major events, as well as a commentator - particularly in ice hockey, alpine skiing and tennis. Now he has decided to take on a new professional challenge outside SRF, SRF writes in a statement.

After the Summer Olympics in Tokyo, which he will present as an anchor for SRF from July 23, 2021, Jann Billeter will move to MySports. At the sports channel, the former HC Davos ice hockey player will work as an ice hockey presenter and commentator. "During the past 24 years, I have been able to experience almost everything a sports journalist could dream of. I feel great gratitude for that," Billeter said of his move. "It has been a great pleasure for me to bring the SRF audience closer to sports in all its facets. And although I consider the past 24 years a great gift, the time has come for me to refocus on my great passion. In the future, it will be 100 percent ice hockey for me. I'm really looking forward to that."

24-year career with Swiss radio and television

Billeter started his journalistic career in the mid-1990s at Winterthur's private station Radio Eulach, now Radio Top. In 1997, he moved to the sports editorial department of the then SF DRS. In the following years, as part of the SRF ice hockey team, he developed from a contributor and interviewer to a commentator and presenter - and followed the national championship, the Spengler Cup and the World Championships up close. At a total of 20 ice hockey world championships, the native of Davos reported from the scene of the action.

From 2007 to 2010 - in addition to his duties at SRF Sport - he hosted the knowledge magazine "Einstein. In addition, on the opening day of the 2008 European Soccer Championships, Jann Billeter joined Mona Vetsch in a 17-hour "SF Spezial" live broadcast for TV audiences to look behind the scenes of the major event in Switzerland.

Since April 2020, GfK Switzerland has been continuously surveying consumers aged 16 to 74 about their biggest concerns. GfK is currently observing a return of topics that were already highly relevant before the pandemic - climate change and environmental pollution are currently more central again than the pandemic.

However, the issue of a pandemic is still high on the list of major concerns, especially among the population over 60 years of age.

Economic consequences of the pandemic

The vast majority of Swiss people aged 30 and over are now somewhat more reassured again about the economic consequences of the corona pandemic. They are more optimistic about their job situation again than in recent months, but around one-fifth are still worried that their job situation will be negatively affected, for example in the form of redundancy. Younger people up to the age of 29 in particular are also still worried about their financial future.

Convenience remains, physical experience becomes more important again

Consumers' lives have not changed much since the first lockdown, but they have changed since before the pandemic. Topics such as "simplification" remain important.

However, the desire for experiences is slowly returning among consumers - leading to dynamics in both directions. In the area of simplification or convenience, it can be seen that around two thirds of the consumers surveyed say they have shopped online in the last week. One third of all respondents want to use home delivery even more intensively in the future. This seems to be an ongoing dynamic that will continue to challenge retailers and logistics.

Digital on-demand media providers such as Netflix and Spotify also gained strongly from the pandemic and further consolidated their position. Here, too, there is a need for individuality and tailored experiences, which was accelerated once again by the pandemic.

"However, the opposite side is also exciting, the physical experience is also becoming more important again: we are finding that consumers are again less likely to say they want to go to brick-and-mortar stores less in the future," said Michel Rahm, Consumer Intelligence Expert. "While this figure was around one-third not long ago, only around one in four consumers now say this - respondents want to get out again, want to participate in life again."

Positive signs for the upcoming summer

Consumers are generally relatively confident - or long for a change of scenery and are already planning their vacations for the summer.

Only one in five currently categorically rules out a vacation, while around 80 percent have either already planned something or are still considering it. It is noticeable that the distance of the vacation destination is likely to increase again somewhat.

Although 36 percent of respondents stay in their home country, about the same number are planning vacations abroad. It is striking that more than half of those traveling abroad are planning to go on vacation by car or train. Only one in ten of those surveyed wants to take a plane within Europe, and only about one in twenty is enthusiastic about a vacation overseas.

Vaccination readiness of respondents

The prerequisites for vacations abroad would be relaxations, such as those that could be achieved through vaccination. In May, GfK surveyed the Swiss population for the first time on their willingness to be vaccinated. More than 70 percent want to be vaccinated against Corona. Only around 16 percent of respondents explicitly said they would not be vaccinated.

More than a quarter of respondents have now even received one or two injections, and another third already have appointments, or at least have already registered.

For the GfK Consumer Life Trends" study were representative online surveys on consumer behavior, attitudes and values were conducted before, during and after the first and second (partial) lockdown in German- and French-speaking Switzerland.
