The publishing director of the Tribune de Genève, Antoine Exchaquet, announced his resignation on Thursday. He had held the post since 1997. It is still unclear whether he will take up a new position at the French-speaking Swiss publishing house Edipresse. Exchaquet was also Vice-Chairman of the Board of Directors at Tribune de Genève and a member of the Board of Directors and interim Director of Geneva's local television station Léman bleu. He is also on the Board of Directors of SDA and Chairman of two commissions of the Media Training Center of Western Switzerland. The new editor-in-chief of the French-speaking Swiss consumer magazine J'achète mieux was also announced on Thursday. The Féderation romande des consommateurs (FRC) has opted for Jean-Antoine Luque (44). Luque was previously a journalist at L'Illustré, 25 Heures and Le Matin. He is the first man to head the magazine since it was founded 40 years ago. The magazine is published 10 times a year with a circulation of 30,000 copies.
