The editorial team of the traditional Bernese newspaper Bund is to be halved from 58 full-time positions to around 30. The culture department would be massively cut. The weekend supplement "Der kleine Bund" is to be integrated into the culture section, as is believed in well-informed circles according to Sonntag. The cuts are in view of a merger with the Tages-Anzeiger. The editor-in-chief of the Bund, Artur K. Vogel, expects a decision on the future of the Bund to be made this week.
The editorial team at Tages-Anzeiger is also to be downsized. It is expected that between 50 and 75 journalists will lose their jobs. As Tamedia media spokesperson Christoph Zimmer told Sonntag, the Tages-Anzeiger is also struggling with falling advertising revenues and readership losses.
