Journalistic responsibility
Free and independent media are essential to a democracy. The opportunity to engage in dialogue and exchange information, arguments and opinions is crucial for the proper functioning of Switzerland’s direct democracy. At the same time, media perform a monitoring function in society by informing the public and taking responsibility for transparent reporting on powerful individuals and institutions. Even the knowledge that a strong and independent media exists helps to maintain order in society. TX Group is the biggest private media company in Switzerland, so it is very much aware of its particular role and responsibilities in this regard. Quality assurance is in the foreground when it comes to exercising journalistic responsibility.
