Dispute between Radio 1 and RBB soon to end?
An amicable solution seems to be emerging in the dispute between Zurich-based Radio 1 and German broadcaster Rundfunk Berlin-Brandenburg (RBB). In the broadcaster's next campaign, the claim "For adults only" will be supplemented with additions such as "and their wonderful children".
An amicable solution appears to be on the horizon in the dispute between Zurich-based Radio 1 and German broadcaster Rundfunk Berlin-Brandenburg (RBB). According to the Sonntagszeitung newspaper, Roger Schawinski declared after a conversation with RBB director Dagmar Reim that there was "no more talk" of a lawsuit. The station founder added to Werbewoche that there would be no legal action against the use of the name Radio 1 or its distribution on the Internet. The only thing RBB is not very happy about is the connection between the name Radio 1 and the claim "Only for adults". Changes seem conceivable here: Schawinski let the RBB boss know that the claim would be partially expanded in the station's next campaign, including the addition of "And their wonderful children". The variant "Only for adults - and their wonderful children" could already be heard on Radio 1 on Sunday evening. Schawinski went on to explain that the conversation with Dagmar Reim was "very friendly". An RBB spokesperson told the Sonntagszeitung that the talks are to be continued.
