TagesWoche is a Swiss German-language online newspaper, with a weekly Friday printed edition, published in Basel by Neue Medien Basel AG in Basel, Basel-Stadt.
History and operation
The newspaper's first edition appeared on 28 October 2011. It was created in reaction to the events surrounding Basler Zeitung, the traditional daily newspaper of Basel, which had financial problems and was finally sold in November 2010.
Its editors-in-chief were Urs Buess and Remo Leupin, who lead a staff of seventeen people – many of whom were formerly journalists at Basler Zeitung. On 17 May 2013, a new editor-in-chief was appointed: Dani Winter.
