3+: Kaiser is interested in Tele Züri
The media house Ringier and the casino operator Escor have already expressed their interest in the regional station Tele Züri, which is up for sale. But Dominik Kaiser, head of the private station 3+, would also like to buy Tele Züri.
The broadcaster 3+ has expressed its interest in Tele Züri to Tamedia and will submit a purchase offer, as Dominik Kaiser told the NZZ am Sonntag. He justifies his interest by saying that synergies could be exploited with two stations. Tele Züri does not make a bad program, continued Kaiser: "We would be interested in expanding it ". The Zurich banker Thomas Matter, who wants to enter the National Council this fall for the SVP, has a stake in 3+.
For Ringier, the acquisition of Tele Züri is also an option. Even before the sale of the regional station was up for discussion, Ringier CEO Marc Walder announced that the company would own television station on the market. At the time, he mentioned not only Tele Züri but also 3+ as potential takeover candidates.
