Christian Mass (Dr.Dish) posted this and similar statements on various satellite boards -
Drdish-Team left TELE-satellite International
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"TELE-satellite International Magazine lost the whole editorial team. The chief editor Christian Mass (aka drDish) and the editorial manager Kinga Szentesi left the company on April 21th, 2005. Meanwhile some of the external writers of the magazine followed.
TSI was once the leading magazine when it came to satellite communications. In the autum of 2004 the publisher fired the ads-manager Claudia Spaeth to do this job by himself. In the 13 years of Claudias work for the magazine, the ads revenue was quite high. After the take over by the publisher A.Wiese this important source of income broke down to a half. to prove that he could sell ads, he offered them for fraction of the old prices. Yes, he got more pages, but the revenues went down. The work situation went from bad to worse. Censorship, influencing the editorial people to write test report in the favor of the ads-clients and delivering false circulation information could not be tolerated.
TSI has no riight the use the name DrDish anymore. All of us are working on a new project. Many of you enjoyed (more or less) DrDish@TV. No panic, we will be back on short notice."
