history

Intelligence Gazette Nov. 17, 1839

The history of the four daily newspapers goes back to the 19th century. On November 17, 1839, the first edition of the “ Intelligence Gazette for the Upper District of Waiblingen and the Surrounding Area” was published “with the most gracious approval of the royal Württemberg ”. Almost six years later, on January 2, 1845, the Welzheimer Zeitung was printed for the first time. In August 1848 a newspaper appeared in Schorndorf, which was finally followed less than a year later by the Winnender newspaper.

In 1971 the four previously independent publishers merged to form the Waiblingen newspaper publisher. Today 35 members of the editorial team produce the local parts and a common district part at four locations. The newspaper publisher Waiblingen obtains the national content as a shell partner from the Stuttgarter Nachrichten .

The newspaper publisher Waiblingen received the German Local Journalist Prize 2006. This prize is awarded annually by the Konrad Adenauer Foundation . The jury was particularly impressed by the concept of the extra pages, which are used to set specific editorial focuses. In 2008 the publisher received this award in the editorial marketing category. In 2009 the newspaper publisher Waiblingen was awarded a special prize from the German Local Journalist Prize for "journalistic sense of responsibility" in connection with reporting on the Winnenden rampage on March 11, 2009.
