Blick TV: Rahel Lenz is the new moderator of the "Blick Referendum" campaign

The "Blick Referendum Campaign" has a new face: The Blick TV political show will be hosted by Rahel Lenz with immediate effect. The 32-year-old has been working as a presenter and video editor at Blick TV since February 2021.

On Wednesday, Lenz will host her first "Blick Vote" on Blick TV. The presenter and video editor takes over from Jonas Projer, who has left the digital channel. "Rahel Lenz has proven herself to be an excellent presenter and editor and has demonstrated her political knowledge," says Stephanie Seliner, team leader moderation at Blick TV. "We are looking forward to the future 'Blick Vote' campaign with her."

Tomorrow's show is about the revised CO2 law. The guests are FDP Council of States member Damian Müller on the pro side and SVP National Council member Christian Imark on the opposing side. Starting at 6 p.m., they will debate in a race against time - each is allowed to speak for exactly seven minutes. Viewers have the final say: They can vote for their favorite on Blick.ch, and the winner receives a free ad in the printed Blick.

"The 'Blick Referendum' is a highly dynamic and innovative format," says Rahel Lenz. "As a moderator, I look forward to controversial, relevant and fair political discussions. With critical and persistent questioning, I want to bring clarity to complex political proposals."

Before Blick TV, Rahel Lenz worked as a presenter, video journalist and producer at the bilingual channel TeleBielingue, and before that she worked at Tele Bärn for five years. She studied at MAZ Lucerne and completed acting studies in the USA. In 2016, she won the Swiss Press Award for a series of reports on a bullying case.
