Urs Gossweiler, member of the ONZ Board of Directors and CEO of licensor Gossweiler Media, is delighted with the results of the study. The market success of ONZ proves that the expansion of the micro-newspaper concept to other market areas is working. "This encourages us in our strategy of developing further licensed editions of the micro-newspaper in the near future," Gossweiler continues.

Jungfrau Zeitung: Slight decline in print, growth in online segment
The situation is different for the second micro-newspaper, the Jungfrau Zeitung published by Gossweiler Media: The print edition lost three percentage points of its reach and is in second place with 65 percent behind the Berner Oberländer, the Berner Zeitung's front page. The Amtsanzeiger Interlaken, which is delivered free of charge to all households, follows nine percentage points behind. In contrast, the newspaper made gains in the online segment. The multimedia platform Jungfrauzeitung.ch recorded a growth rate of 16 percent and, with a reach of 40 percent in the Jungfrau microcosm market area, leads the information offerings on the Internet. It is followed by Bernerzeitung.ch (35 percent, +18) and Blick.ch (28%, +13).
