As part of the ongoing convergence process - the merging of newspaper editorial staff and online editorial staff - a new editorial management structure will be necessary at the Neue Zürcher Zeitung, the statement continues. As of mid-April, the previous daily management will be taken over by the news directors for both media, in close coordination with the department heads of the newspaper editorial office. They, in turn, will also be responsible for the timely and content-oriented presentation of the Neue Zürcher Zeitung's online offering in their respective areas of expertise.
