WISO (officially: ZDF WISO ) is a Monday emitted at 19:25 each economic - and consumer magazine of ZDF . The program has been broadcast since January 3, 1984 as a follow-up to Bilanz . WISO is moderated alternately by Marcus Niehaves and Sarah Tacke . In contrast to its early days, the program is usually broadcast live from April 2011 to mid-2012 in front of a studio audience. At times, instead of live broadcasts, WISO documentation on a special topic (e.g. the food industry or banks) is provided.

In the 1980s, WISO campaigned for German-German rapprochement. In 1986, ZDF was the first western broadcaster to broadcast a complete edition from the GDR of the Leipziger Messe . Further broadcasts live from companies in the GDR followed in the next few years.

The program deals mainly with topics from the areas of economy and social policy , mainly from the point of view of consumers, tenants, employees and pensioners. The first letter of topics Wi rtschaft and Sun ziales give the mission name.

WISO offers viewers the opportunity to contact the editorial team so that they can intervene in their case, which means that companies or authorities usually react quickly in the interests of those affected.
