Tages-Anzeiger

Tages-Anzeiger (German: [ˈtaːɡəs ˈʔantsaɪɡɐ]), also abbreviated Tagi or TA, is a Swiss German-language national daily newspaper published in Zurich, Switzerland.

The paper was first published under the name Tages-Anzeiger für Stadt und Kanton Zürich in 1893.

Although Tages-Anzeiger is a national newspaper, it focuses mainly on the Zurich region.

[8] In the period of 1995–1996 Tages-Anzeiger had a circulation of 282,222 copies, making it the second best-selling paper in the country.

Occasionally, special sections are added to cover major events such as elections.

In its early years, the magazine featured articles by writers including Niklaus Meienberg, Peter Bichsel and Laure Wyss, and, as a bastion of journalistic enlightenment in the 1970s, it heavily defined cultural and political discourse in Switzerland.
