The Blix is a regional, free culture and events magazine that has been published monthly by Blix Verlag since April 2003 and is widely distributed in Upper Swabia . The publisher's headquarters are in Aulendorf .
Editor-in-chief and publisher
Editor-in-chief and publisher of Blix magazine is the journalist Roland Reck . Reck was a former district editor at the Schwäbische Zeitung in the Biberach district and was dismissed in 2002 together with Gunther Dahinten, who had been in office for 34 years, because of critical reports on District Administrator Peter Schneider .
Content and publication area
In addition to events and regional political events, one focus of Blix is on dealing with the Schwäbische Zeitung. The magazine has set itself the task of publicizing topics and scandals , which receive little or no attention at all in the Schwäbische Zeitung, through extensive reporting in order to create a counter-publicity .
In contrast to the Schwäbische Zeitung, the Blix-Magazin reported in detail, for example, on drunk driving and a hit-and-run by member of the Bundestag Andreas Schockenhoff , the eviction of Upper Swabian farms and the political commitment of Oswald Metzger after his move from the Greens to the CDU.
Most of the articles in the “Blix” are written by the editors themselves, but readers can also submit their own articles. Outstanding articles are occasionally published twice in the independent Internet weekly newspaper Context: weekly newspaper , excerpts of which are also included in the taz weekend edition Sunday .
The publication area of the culture and events magazine today covers the area from Friedrichshafen to Ulm , but concentrates on the districts of Ravensburg and Biberach .
In Upper Swabia the Blix-Magazin is the only noteworthy competitor to the Schwäbische Zeitung. The Schwäbische Verlag (publisher of the Schwäbische Zeitung) reacted immediately to the new publication of the Blix-Magazin with the introduction of the event magazine "akzent" in the same distribution area.
