Thurgauer Zeitung founds readers' council
With its print edition, its online presence and its collaboration with Tele D, the Thurgauer Zeitung wants to continue to develop as a broad-based media house for the canton of Thurgau. The opinion of active readers should play an important role in this process. For this reason, the Thurgauer Zeitung is setting up a readers' council.
In its issue of Saturday, November 7, the Thurgauer Zeitung (TZ) is looking for twelve readers to give their opinion to the editorial team in the TZ Readers' Council. The readers' council will help the Thurgauer Zeitung to respond even more to readers' interests, concerns, needs, hobbies, joys and problems. What topics do readers find good or bad? Which problems should the Thurgauer Zeitung take up even more? In the "Council of Twelve", TZ readers have a direct influence on the newspaper: three times a year, the Thurgauer Zeitung invites the readers' councils to a meeting in the editorial office. The councillors meet the editors-in-chief and can tell them directly what they like and dislike about the Thurgauer Zeitung. The Readers' Councils can also take part in editorial conferences and experience how their newspaper is created.
Readers who are interested in this task can apply by completing a questionnaire that will be published in the Thurgauer Zeitung or on Thurgauerzeitung.ch can be downloaded. Publisher Peter Hartmeier will select twelve representative members from the applications. The Readers' Council is intended to represent a cross-section of society and accordingly include not only all age groups, but also parents, single parents, entrepreneurs, employees, housewives, the unemployed, the retired, students and apprentices. The work of the Readers' Council is voluntary.
