Sissach Volksstimme to be printed in Basel in future
The Sissacher Volksstimme will be printed in Basel going forward. The publisher, Schaub Medien, has awarded the printing contract for the newspaper—which is published three times a week—to Basler Zeitung Medien. According to Schaub Medien, this will not affect the independence of the Baselbieter Zeitung, which was founded 126 years ago.
The Sissacher Volksstimme will be printed in Basel in future: publisher Schaub Medien has awarded the printing contract for the newspaper, which is published three times a week, to Basler Zeitung Medien. According to Schaub Medien, the independence of the Baselbieter newspaper, which was founded 126 years ago, will not change. The editorial team remains "untouched autonomous" and is solely committed to the guidelines and principles of the publisher.
The company explains that the web offset press, which went into operation in Sissach in 1980, no longer meets the quality requirements and is very susceptible to repairs. Schaub Medien is now concentrating on commercial printing and plans to construct a new building in the coming months.
The Volksstimme, which is published on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays with a print run of 8,000 copies, is printed at the Basler Zeitung Medien printing center. The paper is now published as a Zweibund newspaper and in four colors throughout. Since 2006, the Volksstimme has also included the job advertisement Stellefant, published by Basler Zeitung.
