In 2010 the Abendzeitung sold the Nuremberg edition and the advertising journal Der Frankenreport to "media-regional", a company of the Nuremberg publisher and radio operator Gunther Oschmann. A close cooperation between the two editions in Munich and Nuremberg was preserved, as well as the title. The out of region section of the newspaper continued to be based in Munich. The Federal Cartel Office approved the acquisition on 1 March 2010.
