New Internet portal on Swiss politics
A new journalistic portal goes online this week. The project is backed by Zurich SVP cantonal councillor Claudio Zanetti and former radio journalist Christoph Romer.
The editorial office is based in Ebmatingen, Zurich, and currently employs three editors. The platform's journalistic credo is to provide well-founded political information on an independent, non-partisan and pointed basis, as Zanetti and Romer announced on Tuesday. The portal aims to provide information on political and social issues that are relevant to Switzerland. The portal is a product of Politik.ch Medien by Claudio Zanetti and Christoph Romer, which has also been producing the TV talk show CC Talk on Star TV since the beginning of the year.
Video contributions, articles and commentaries are published. Guest commentaries from experts and politicians of all political persuasions are also regularly posted. The portal includes its own blog and also relies on extensive commentary functions, from which new journalistic stories can be generated. It also offers a general news ticker and up-to-date weather information.
According to the press release, the platform is financed by advertising. A photo database is also being set up to offer other media visual material on Swiss politics.
