The Süderländer Tageblatt (ST) is a traditional German local newspaper. It appears in the town of Plettenberg , the municipality of Herscheid and the surrounding area (parts of the Olpe district and the town of Neuenrade ). The sold circulation was 5,138 copies in 2016, a decrease of 16 percent compared to 1998.
Structure and organization
The coat (supra-regional politics, economy, sport and culture) is taken from the local paper of the Westfälischer Anzeiger in Hamm, with its predecessors since 1880 in the economically independent publishing house (O. Hundt GmbH & Co. KG - publisher and managing director: Camilla Hundt) . It also exchanges articles with the Märkischer Zeitungsverlag (MZV, Lüdenscheid ). The ST supplies the Lüdenscheider Nachrichten (LN) with a page “Herscheider Nachrichten” and the daily newspaper Süderländer Volksfreund (SV), which appears in Werdohl in the MZV, with a page “Vier-Täler-Stadt Plettenberg”. Conversely, the ST receives a page from the MZV “From District and Region” and exchanges reports and pages with the MZV's sports editors.
The ST also cooperates technically with the MZV, whose modern printing center in Meinerzhagen it uses. The newspaper format is currently “Rheinisch” (formerly “Berliner”). The newspaper created in the seven-column type area is printed almost entirely in color. The original red spot color on the front page has meanwhile changed to "Ippen blue" (the printing MZV belongs to the publishing group of Dirk Ippen , whose newspapers - with the exception of the tabloid tz in Munich - use blue spot colors). Wherever possible, however, the editorial team uses the old traditional and corporate color red.
Distribution area
In Plettenberg, the ST is the only local daily newspaper. For decades, the ST competed as the market leader with the Westfälische Rundschau (WR) belonging to the WAZ media group (today Funke media group ). In the places of publication Rönkhausen or Hülschotten and Lichtringhausen , which belong to Finnentrop and Attendorn , the WAZ newspaper Westfalenpost was added in addition to the WR . In Herscheid as well as in Neuenrade-Affeln and Altenaffeln , the ST appears parallel to the respective MZV partner newspapers LN and SV.
history
Today's Süderländer Tageblatt was founded in 1880 by Johann Ruckstuhl as Plettenberger Bote , before it traded as the Süderländer Wochenblatt a year later . In 1913 it became a daily newspaper when it was published every working day . Today it still has the titles Plettenberger Zeitung and Herscheider Nachrichten in mind. Also Plettenberger Stadtspiegel and Southshore countries newspaper dive and surfaced yet in the local section as a secondary title.
The ST in Plettenberg has been associated with the Hundt publishing family for decades. Today, the fifth generation of publishers - as managing director - Camilla Hundt and - as head of the editorial department - Stefan Aschauer-Hundt run the publishing house. The Hundt family in Plettenberg is a branch of the Hundt publishing family in Hattingen. Master bookbinder Carl Hundt opened a bookbindery there in 1837 on Obermarkt. Under the name "Märkische Blätter" he published a newspaper for the city of Hattingen and the neighboring communities in the surrounding area from 1849 with the title Märkische Blätter , which appeared two to three times a week. The Hattinger Zeitung developed from it . Otto Hundt acquired the Süderländer Tageblatt in Plettenberg in 1919 . He was succeeded in the role of Plettenberg publisher Dr. Herbert Hundt (until 1978) and Valerie Hundt (until 2001).
The period of inflation and the period of National Socialism were difficult phases for the ST. In the Nazi years, the neutral home press was under heavy pressure from the regime. The Süderländer Tageblatt fell victim to the wave of closings . It had to cease publication on May 31, 1941 in the course of the “concentration of forces”. Nevertheless, the publisher managed to offer ST readers a newspaper with local news and advertisements under the title Lüdenscheider General-Anzeiger for the duration of the war.
With the invasion of Germany by the Allies, the publication of newspapers was initially prohibited in principle. All that was permitted was the printing of a two-page notice sheet, initially published once a week and later twice a week, in which primarily orders from the occupying power and notices from the district and local authorities appeared. First and foremost, it was the announcements about the foods that were called up that made this bulletin so desirable among the population. It was not until October 29, 1949 that the first copies of the Süderländer Tageblatt could leave the rotary press in the old guise.
A decisive turning point for the ST was the changeover from lunchtime to early morning in 1994. In addition to the Solinger Tageblatt , the Siegener Zeitung and the Vlothoer Anzeiger , the ST was one of the last daily newspapers in North Rhine-Westphalia to become decided to take this step.
A change there was in the printing and typesetting: 1985 replaced Linotype - phototypesetting the hot type . In the mid-1990s, full-page make-up followed with an editorial system from the manufacturers "alfa" and "funkinform".
It was also the two-color printing on 4c - offset printing changed. The old VOMAG printing machine (built in 1911), however, continued to operate in parallel for insert production (and as an emergency reserve). During the whole of 1997, on the occasion of the 600th anniversary of the city of Plettenberg, the weekend history supplement “da capo”, which was noticed beyond the city limits, was produced on it. But the feature pages -pressure finally ended. In 2001 the printing machine was handed over to the Westphalian Open-Air Museum in Hagen , where today it is given its “bread of grace” as an exhibit in the museum, next to the old, historic Plettenberger Lohmühle.
For the Ippen publishing group, the editorial team at the Plettenberg newspaper house has been providing the complete reporting from Herscheid (for the Lüdenscheider Nachrichten) and a page "Vier-Täler-Stadt Plettenberg" (for the Süderländer Volksfreund Werdohl title) since 1996.
With the closure of all local editorial offices of the competing Westfälische Rundschau on February 1, 2013, the editorial staff of the ST also took over the supply of the WR with local content. The newspaper house Plettenberg produced a local section clearly defined in terms of quantity for the WR in Plettenberg and Herscheid. This activity ended with the complete abandonment of the WR edition on January 1, 2014.
In the "newspaper logistics" sector, ST-Versand works for its own product, the Süderländer Tageblatt, and for national foreign newspapers such as the Süddeutsche Zeitung. Since 1998, the ST-Versand in Plettenberg and Herscheid has also been distributing the advertising paper "Der Bote", which appears on Wednesday. Between October 15, 2012 and December 31, 2013, the Westfälische Rundschau was also delivered from the Hagen-Bathey ramp by ST-Versand in Plettenberg.
In November 2017, Stefan Aschauer, Head of Duty at the Süderländer Tageblatt , was the focus of Chrismon's cover story .
