Catchment area
The catchment area includes the former districts of Aarberg , Biel , Büren , Erlach and Nidau , but also parts of Bern . In all sections , topics from the Biel-Seeland region are the specialty of the regional newspaper.
Holdings
The German-language daily newspaper belongs to the Gassmann Group, which also includes the French-language newspaper Journal du Jura . The publisher is also heavily involved in the bilingual regional television TeleBielingue . The Biel Communication Center (CC), which is located next to Biel Central Station, houses all three editorial offices and the local radio Canal 3 - as well as other companies from the communications and media industry.
collaboration
The Bieler Tagblatt works very closely with the Journal du Jura , TeleBielingue and Canal 3 in day-to-day business . In the case of similar or identical content and stories, the contributions are linked to one another and can thus be called up on any medium.
The newspaper was printed until autumn 2012 in the publishing house of W. Gassmann AG in Längfeld in Biel- Bözingen , where the former editorial office was once located, and since then in Büchler Grafino, which belongs to the Tamedia group. For several years now, the newspaper has been getting the supraregional parts from the Berner Zeitung and, since 2018, from Tamedia's new German-speaking editorial team. The Bieler Tagblatt , however, canceled the contracts for printing and general editing for mid-2018. The aim is to reduce costs.
Competitor
In addition to the Bieler Tagblatt , the bilingual free weekly newspaper Biel Bienne is published in the city and in the agglomeration . In addition, daily newspapers such as Der Bund , Blick , Berner Zeitung , Grenchner Tagblatt and Solothurner Zeitung and free papers such as 20 Minuten and Blick am Abend penetrate the publication area. The Sunday press is also fighting for presence in Biel and the surrounding area.
