 From August 21, a new free weekly newspaper called D'Region will be published in the Emmental. The paper will be sent by post to all households in the area between Lützelflüh, Burgdorf and Fraubrunnen on Tuesdays. The weekly newspaper aims to report on sporting, cultural, political, religious and economic life in the region. The online edition is published at the same time as the printed newspaper. The editorial director is Martin Rüfenacht. According to SDA, Haller und Jenzer Holding is behind the project. It has founded a separate company called Medienzentrum for the new weekly newspaper, which is legally and personally independent of Haller und Jenzer Holding. However, the latter is taking on the prepress and printing work.
Haller und Jenzer Holding had produced the Burgdorfer Tagblatt for many years, most recently in a joint operating company with the former Berner Tagblatt Medien, now Espace Media Groupe. The operating company was dissolved at the end of 2004 for economic reasons.
