Radio 1 cancels "Zmorge bi Blochers"
The Zurich-based private radio station Radio 1 is canceling the comedy series «Zmorge bi Blochers.» Blocher has lost too much of his star power to remain the centerpiece of a daily show.
The Zurich-based private broadcaster Radio 1 is discontinuing the comedy series "Zmorge bi Blochers". "Christoph Blocher has lost so much of his appeal in recent months that he can no longer be the focus of a daily comedy show on our station," Radio 1 founder Roger Schawinski is quoted as saying in a press release. However, comedy will continue to be broadcast on weekdays at 7.20 am: The "Comedy Hotline" will now be broadcast, featuring phone-ins with current exponents of public life. Depending on topicality, Christoph Blocher may also appear again. The "Comedy Hotline" will be hosted by morning presenter Marc Jäggi and voice impersonator Patric Schäfler.
