Four federal house editorial offices join forces
The four federal government newsrooms of the *Tages-Anzeiger*, *Der Bund*, *24 heures*, and *Tribune de Genève* have been collaborating informally since December. The exchange of articles and information across the language border stems from an initiative by the editorial boards.
On Thursday, the Tages-Anzeiger and the Bund published the first translated article, which appeared on the same day in the French-speaking Swiss daily newspaper 24 heures and in the Tribune de Genève, as the newspapers involved reported in an editorial note.
The exchange is informal, explained Tamedia spokesperson Christoph Zimmer at the request of the SDA news agency. Cooperation across the language border has taken place in a handful of cases so far. It does not represent any organizational change. The complete translation is an exception. The aim is to gain experience. Zimmer explained that the editors-in-chief would decide how to proceed in six months' time.
