New era in the local editorial team: change in line and innovative editorial unit

New editorial orientation in the local editorial office city region Aachen

An important personnel change and a structural change characterize the local editorial team of city region Aachen. Udo Kals follows in the footsteps of Bernd Büttgens and takes over the management of the editorial team, while a new editorial unit is implemented.

Kals, who has many years of experience as an editor of the printed daily newspaper, will form the double leadership of the local editorial team together with Annika Kasties. Kasties will continue to focus on the Aachen-Stadt local editorial team, while Kals will increasingly devote itself to the editorial matters in the surrounding areas such as Würselen, Herzogenrath, Baesweiler, Alsdorf, Eschweiler, Stolberg and Nordeifel.

Büttgens, on the other hand, will build a new editorial unit and lead the studio and the Forum of the Aachener Zeitung. The focus here is on the expansion of the dialogue and the deepening of important local and regional topics, whereby studio discussions and live forums play a central role with the readership.
