CVP discontinues party magazine for cost reasons
The CVP needs to cut costs: It is discontinuing its magazine, *Die Politik*, for financial reasons. The magazine's final issue will be published in September.
The decision was already made in June, said CVP spokeswoman Marianne Binder, who is editor-in-chief of the magazine. At the request of the SDA news agency, she confirmed a corresponding report by NZZ am Sonntag. Binder said she regretted the decision. The magazine had been well received and had a loyal readership. The discontinuation was due to cost reasons. "We are not resting on our laurels," said Binder.
There will probably be a print organ again, but it will no longer be a magazine, but a party newspaper. The readership of Die Politik will be informed of the discontinuation in the last issue, as Binder went on to say. The magazine Die Politik was published ten times a year in German and French. According to information on the CVP website, the magazine had a circulation of 11,000 copies. (SDA)
