Süddeutsche Zeitung: Restructuring of regional editions begins!
Steinhausen, Deutschland - Readers of the “Süddeutsche Zeitung” must adapt to noticeable changes. As DWDL , the printed edition is restructured, whereby the focus is on efficiency and sustainability. In the future, seven independent regional parts will be eliminated, which leads to a reduction in district expenditure. The focus is now on four editions that cover the Munich area: the districts of Fürstenfeldbruck and Dachau, Ebersberg, Erding and Freising as well as Starnberg and Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen, and of course the district of Munich.
The newspaper will comprehensively adapt its reporting. News from Munich, the region and Bavaria are published on at least ten newspaper pages - before that there were at least twelve. The aim of the restructuring is to optimize the pressure processes and at the same time protect resources. The online editions remain as usual and the counties can continue to be selected individually.
changes and their effects
With the changes, an end for the existing offices in the counties is heralded. In the future there will only be fixed jobs in Starnberg, Dachau and Munich-Steinhausen. Cooperation with freelancers also changes: they are no longer commissioned to date. However, the reform does not do without any incisions: Nevertheless, the editor -in -chief, led by Ulrich Schäfer, assures that reporting from the counties remains intensive.
The reform was decided in an exchange with the works council. Managing Director Johannes Hauner emphasizes that the reporting is designed regardless of the sponsoring medium. Local topics and digital formats in particular are to be developed in order to address younger readers more. This tendency towards digitization is also a sign of the adaptations that journalism goes through today, as bpbA look into the future
The changes are part of a comprehensive trend in the media landscape. The Southwest German Media Holding is also planning to sell parts of the publisher in Baden-Württemberg, such as the "Stuttgarter Zeitung" and "Stuttgarter Nachrichten". Such restructuring cannot only be observed in Munich, but also affect journalism nationwide. The susceptibility of traditional media for digital change can also be seen in the need to check the relevance of messages and adapt the address of the readership, something that Süddeutsche illustrated.
Overall, it becomes clear that journalism cannot rest in the idle state. In order to remain relevant and informative in the future, optimal structures and modern approaches are required that enable the “Süddeutsche Zeitung” to counter the challenges of the digital age for long -term success.
