One month after its launch, the team continues to surprise.
In the newsroom, in the field or remotely, every member of the editorial team showed up and played their part.
An editorial team that organises itself
As with the first issue, each published article is the result of a genuine editorial process: choosing a topic, making contact, conducting interviews, writing, photography, proofreading and layout via MagTuner.
This second issue marks a further step: the editorial team no longer needs to be told how to organise itself. The learning process is organic and integrated. It is — once again — bluffant!
-
Accredited journalists in the field
The articles on the Savigny Animation Film Festival and the concerts of the Jorat schools at the church in Mézières were produced as a team, on site. The editorial team organised its own meetings with the people involved — and sent its own accreditation requests.
-
Concert of the Jorat schools
As the only member present at the concert of the Jorat schools in the church in Mézières, Alix brought her perspective and spontaneously helped complete the report by Donovan and our photographer Mathieu, who had attended the afternoon dress rehearsal. This was further proof of her clarity of vision and of how fully she inhabits her role as editor-in-chief.
-
Esther’s key interview
Zosia, who had just finalised a portrait of a local business, chose to give her place to Esther for the interview with Marjolaine Perreten, which the editorial team considered to be a particularly important news item. A mature editorial decision, taken collectively in the interest of the newspaper.
-
MagTuner in Donovan’s hands
Using the MagTuner platform, Donovan independently created the issue’s flatplan — the planning tool used to define the organisation and length of the articles before layout. It is rare to see a young contributor use this tool with such a degree of autonomy while also integrating genuine editorial thinking.
This approach shows the maturity the editorial team has gained in the space of just one issue.
A newsroom meeting on the road

Célia, our editor-in-chief and a great sports enthusiast, had travelled to Zurich to attend the Ice Hockey World Championship matches. But there was no question of missing Wednesday’s editorial meeting.
Alix and Zosia took over the running of the session. At the agreed time, Célia joined them by videoconference from the train. Updates from her deputies, collective decisions on the content, validation of the programme: the meeting unfolded as if the whole team were in the same room.
Topics chosen
FFAS on the front page of the newspaper
Readers will discover, among other things, a major report on the 10th edition of the Savigny Animation Film Festival, with an immersion during the opening evening as well as an interview with its founder, Swiss filmmaker Marjolaine Perreten. The article combines photographic reporting, historical context and an in-depth interview.
The impressive achievement of the Swiss ice hockey team
The newspaper also features a report on the 2026 Ice Hockey World Championship, held in Switzerland and written by Célia, who was on site in Zurich. The piece looks at the national team’s exceptional run, a historic hat-trick and a final lost 1–0 after overtime against Finland.
Regional roots
The regional dimension is also strongly present, with Jules’ account of the Aubert family’s inalpe in Bullet, above Lake Neuchâtel, as well as Alix and Donovan’s report on the choir and orchestra concerts of the Jorat schools at the church in Mézières.
Esther’s column
Esther’s column, now an eagerly awaited section, reopens the debate between books and screens. True to her style, our columnist approaches the question lightly and invites readers to follow her reflection.
Le Miroir des heures longues (The Mirror of the Long Hours)
Jules continues his serial novel. David, his back frozen with fear, searches for a way out of the ransacked house. The telephone antenna is out of service. A cold laugh echoes behind him …
The story continues — and so do the readers.

Another wink from Mathieu
This edition sees the appearance of a new photography section by Mathieu, the editorial team’s artistic director. His eye, his subject, his choices: a carte blanche that represents both a privilege and a responsibility.
In this second issue, he takes us into the vineyards of Cully. His sensitive text on the flowering of the vines comes as a pleasant surprise and offers readers a delightful moment. Challenge met, Mathieu!
What comes next?
At the time of this publication, editions 3 and 4 were already in preparation, with the ambition of continuing to anchor the editorial team in the life of the region and to push each journalist’s autonomy even further.

Analysis of the journalistic productions
This issue reveals a naturally expanding range of journalistic genres
Major field reporting, in-depth interviews, sports reporting directly connected to current events, light and personal life stories, opinion columns, a photography section — and a literary serial that keeps readers engaged from one edition to the next.
This mix was not imposed
It was built through the choices of each journalist, over the course of the sessions, in an autonomous and organic way.
Choosing a topic, deciding on the format, weighing options during editorial meetings — these reflexes are now embedded.
The editorial team is no longer simply producing articles — it is developing an editorial identity.

The collaboration with Le Courrier Lavaux-Oron-Jorat
Vox Pop is published once a month as an insert in Le Courrier Lavaux-Oron-Jorat, the district’s newspaper for the past 76 years.
This collaboration anchors the project in a concrete editorial reality: the young people know that they will be read, which creates — according to Thomas Zoller — “an additional positive tension.”
