In 2003, Hanspeter Lebrument became publisher president. It was the year of the rebels: Christoph Blocher became a Federal Councillor, Roger Schawinski became head of Sat.1. But the two have long since changed jobs, one became a publisher, the other a SRG talk show host. Lebrument stayed.
But next week his era will end: looking back, it was a good israel rcs data time. The 75-year-old gave the Swiss Media Association what he himself had: external impact and character. Even when he overshot the mark. Which happened occasionally. But even that is a tradition: in Graubünden, hunters are characterized by extreme inaccuracy. But even then - and especially then - Lebrument always made for a good headline. He will be missed.
Lebrument's successor will be Pietro Supino, head of the all-powerful Tamedia. The election will take place next Thursday in Lucerne. It's a bit of a surprise: just a year ago, Supino ruled out becoming president. But times have changed since the introduction of the marketing company Admeira.
