According to the Audience Council, Swiss Television was able to distinguish itself through a variety of different approaches. SF does not only deal with the debates in the Federal Parliament in the classic news programs. Individual topics are also addressed in other programs such as Arena, Rundschau, DOK, Club, Kulturplatz and Sternstunde Kunst.
There was no shortage of suggestions for improvement. For example, more innovative approaches to the topics could be sought. The Council would also welcome a stronger focus on young or newly elected Council members and stakeholders outside of Parliament.
The Public Council also made this comment to Radio DRS, whose reporting it praised overall. In particular, the expertise of the editors was impressive. The events in Bern were covered almost completely and close to the listeners.
According to the Public Council, the only thing it found disturbing was the occasional use of tabloid expressions in radio reports. For example, there was talk of "electricity barons".
