3sat Switzerland: Barbara Riesen becomes Editorial Director

Frank Hubrath is leaving Swiss Television (SF) at the end of October. He has worked for SF since 2002 as Editorial Director of 3sat Switzerland. He will be succeeded with immediate effect by the current deputy editorial director Barbara Riesen.

With the change, 3sat Switzerland is to be realigned, as Nathalie Wappler, designated Head of the Culture Department of Swiss Radio and Television (SRF), confirmed to SDA on Wednesday in a report by Klein Report.
The exchange and networking of the 3sat program with the specialist areas of SRF's culture department is to be intensified. The aim is to link 3sat more closely with new areas and to respond better to current needs. The management is to be more closely linked to the department management as a staff position.
Rajan Autze will be the new program planner at 3sat Switzerland from January 1, 2011. He will also take over as deputy head of the staff unit.
