AZ Medien, a privately owned company, is headquartered in Switzerland. Founded in 1836, the company operates with approximately 140 employees. The company specializes in media production, offering multimedia and publishing services, including the publication of newspapers, journals, and books, in addition to providing online and television media services.
On January 16, 2026, regional TV stations Tele M1, TeleBärn, and TeleZüri reached a broad audience in the second half of 2025, driven by their intensive reporting on national and regional votes, established formats, and major events within their service areas. Previously, on November 20, 2025, Peter Wanner, the publisher and president of the board of directors, sold the media house AZ Medien to his children, sons Michael and Florian, and daughter Anna Wanner. Peter Wanner will retain his role as president of the board of directors. Michael Wanner, who also serves as CEO of CH Media, received the majority of the votes in AZ Medien. His father noted that Michael was "always the leader in the family accepted by all," with CH Media newspapers being majority-owned by AZ Medien.
