Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger with new layout On 1 September 2001, Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger presented itself with new aspect and content. MediaGroup Berlin (MGB) conceived the design of the new layout with Lukas Kircher. The publisher Alfred Neven DuMont called on the editorial office of Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger to create a more colourful, more lively and more entertaining newspaper. In all modernisations, the serious basic character, which the readers appreciate, should still be maintained. Since many readers no longer use the newspaper as their primary source of information, Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger increasingly relies on providing background information. Additional information boxes give further information. Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger with daily magazine Every day a small magazine in the newspaper - Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger started this on 11 March 2006. In its book "Magazin", every day there are reports on 16 pages in half format on topics from the areas of health, family and partnership, fashion, new products, music, technology, food and drink, wellness, leisure time and hobbies. In addition, the magazine also includes a TV and cinema programme as well as a timetable of events in the area of circulation. Greater utility, service and entertainment are the guiding principles. In the production of the magazine, the editorial office also falls back on the experience of working on its tabloid DIREKT. The magazine, printed entirely in colour, appears in the Berliner half format. The hitherto existing supplement "Termine" - likewise in the Berliner half format and separately removable - is integrated into the Thursday edition of the "Magazin". Lukas Kirchner developed the layout. Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger has started Internet TV on its website "ksta.de" In May 2006, Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger started its new website, "ksta-tv.de" (www.ksta-tv.de). In the first start-up phase, Stadt-Anzeiger offers daily updated news films from the foreign, Germany, culture, entertainment and sport departments. They are created in collaboration with the European video news service "Zoom.in", which falls back on material of the new agency AP. Still in this summer, in a second phase, "ksta-tv.de" will also develop a regional and local Internet-TV reporting service. A young team of the online editorial office is testing the possibilities and the link-up with the editorial offices of newspaper and the classical website. M. DuMont Schauberg has started tabloid newspaper In the M. DuMont Schauberg publishing company DIREKT, a newspaper in the tabloid format has appeared since October 2004. The daily newspaper is printed in the Berliner half format. It costs 50 cents and is sold from Monday to Fridays in the greater Cologne area. The contents are meant to be serious and for quick consumption. The new product is above all geared to the young target group that previously read few or even no newspapers. Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger with first regional Internet portal www.rhein-berg-online.de Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger started its first regional news portal in February 2005 in the Rheinisch-Bergischer district. On www.rhein-berg-online.de, the reader receives news updated every minute from the region for the region. The bandwidth ranges from sport to club life and the regional economy and culture. The user can find national and international news easily through links to www.ksta.de. As first local online-presence, www.rhein-berg-online.de is spun off from the supraregional online portal of Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger and put on its own feet. In Bergisch Gladbach, at the same time an own marketing concept has been developed and set up in the local online editorial office. The news website of www.rhein-berg-online.de is supplemented by a calendar of events, regional market leader and small ads market. Regional discussion forums offer the possibility to take part in an active exchange of views. A mobile news service via SMS will in future expand the range of services offered.
