As I write this editor’s column, the snow has been falling the whole day, and the hysteria of the false snow dumping story from last year seems long gone. A storm in a glass of water, we labelled it, that with time hardly will be a bleep on the news radar. Nevertheless, ...

Besides local Swiss newspapers covering the helicopter snow-dumping that happened on 27 December, the international press also picked up on the story that quickly ...
