It is the third largest newspaper in the region after the Sächsische Zeitung and the Dresdner Morgenpost . The sold circulation is 16,545 copies, a decrease of 58 percent since 1998.

Both newspapers were printed in the North German format in the printing house of the Leipziger Volkszeitung in Leipzig-Stahmeln . The DNN has been printed by the DDV media group in Dresden since January 2019, and since then the newspaper has been published in the Rhenish format .

The Leipziger Verlags- und Druckereigesellschaft mbH & Co.KG in turn belongs to the Hanover- based publishing company Madsack GmbH & Co.KG , whose largest shareholder, with approx. 23%, is the Deutsche Druck- und Verlagsgesellschaft mbH , which belongs to the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD) , which also owns shares in the Sächsische Zeitung and the Dresdner Morgenpost .

history

A newspaper with the title Dresdner Latest News appeared as early as 1893, but its publication had to be discontinued in 1943.

Known as the DNN newspaper of the reunification period came on 1 September 1990 from merger of the East German newspapers Saxon Latest News (SNN) and Saxon Tageblatt (ST), to DDR Dresdner publications -times block parties NDPD and LDPD were.

At the end of 1991 the DNN merged with the former district organ of the GDR CDU for the Dresden district, Die Union . The common sheet appeared for the first time on December 2, 1991. The initial name Dresdner Latest News / Die Union was later changed back to Dresdner Latest News , but to this day Die Union is still under the title.

From 1990 onwards, the first editorial office was at Wettiner Platz , where the Dresden editorial office of ST was previously located. At the end of 1991 the editorial office moved to the former headquarters of the Dresden editorial office of the newspaper Die Union on Hauptstrasse . Since March 2013 the editorial office has been at Dr.-Külz-Ring .

Relaunch

With the relaunch of the newspapers "Leipziger Volkszeitung", "Dresdner Latest Nachrichten" and " Hannoversche Allgemeine ", which belong to the Madsack media group , the look of the three titles has been standardized since May 2014. This means that even more content from the three newspapers will now be produced centrally in Hanover. The “ Madsack 2018 ” concept is aimed at the central production of national content for the regional newspapers; this is created by the central editorial office RedaktionsNetzwerk Deutschland (RND) based in Hanover .

"Madsack 2018" and the DNN

With the “Madsack 2018” agenda, the Madsack top management announced a restructuring of the group on October 2, 2013 at a management meeting of the media group in Hanover. According to managing director Thomas Düffert, a new central editorial office operating under the name “ RedaktionsNetzwerk Deutschland GmbH” should “offer national content in a better quality than a single regional newspaper could deliver on its own”. Matthias Koch, currently editor-in-chief of the Hannoversche Allgemeine Zeitung, will set up and manage the central editorial office .

Michael Konken from the German Association of Journalists spoke of a "blow against media diversity". The works council fears job losses, the closure of locations, further tariff-free zones, the disqualification of activities and serious disadvantages for the employees.

In May 2014 it became known that the “Dresdner Latest News” was facing massive job cuts: around 30 percent of the 25 editorial posts are to be cut. The situation is similar with the LVZ: At the parent newspaper “Leipziger Volkszeitung” around 40 employees are to leave the editorial offices in 2014, the number of full-time positions will drop to 90 by the end of 2015 (the LVZ has around 165 editorial staff according to DJV Sachsen). The downsizing is taking place across departments and affects editors and secretaries. A maximum of three employees should remain in each of the external editorial offices in Delitzsch-Eilenburg, Wurzen-Grimma and Borna-Geithain. The Leipziger Internet Zeitung and even the Mitteldeutsche Rundfunk are worried about the future of local journalism in Central Germany.
