 No, unfortunately I'm not being involved in a new project for a daily newspaper. It was possible some months ago, but the people who were starting it changed their minds and are actually thinking about an online daily.
However, what typefaces would you use for titles, and which for text body, subcaption and such?
I've always supported the use of Melior (http://www.linotype.com/1222/melior-family.html) for the body, while a traditional Franklin Gothic (http://www.linotype.com/463/franklingothic-family.html) would have worked out nice for the titles and boxes.
So, what would be your pick(s)?

 in the image you can see the current header of the magazine. unfortunately, nobody remembers it's origin since many generations of students have been working on the magazine. for a new layout, it would be great to have the font at hand. oh, and i have seen that font in other circumstances already, it was used as a company's logo-font. can anybody help me? i (and the whole editorial staff)would be so thankful!:)

There are millions of newspapers out there, and each one has its special header font - what newspaper are you thinking of?
Have you got a scanned picture of the font?

Wow! That's pretty cool, I had never seen this font before, but like many type and font geeks, I keep several images/photographs/ephemera handy that I find inspiring, one of which is an old German newspaper I came across. Of course Manfred Klein mastered it! Neato.

Typefaces and (type)fonts are two distinctly different things.
Like a building is a building is a building. What building? What for, what size? what shape?
A typeface is a style of type such as Times Roman or Helvetica, it does not address size or variations like italic or bold.
A font is a subset of a typeface that is a specific size and a specific variant ie; Helvetica Narrow 18 point bold italic is a font as is Helvetica Narrow 18 point bold and so on.
This distinction is very important because it givs us the possibility to point out exactly what we mean. If you say "Times", I think which one? Roman, bold, oblique? What size? For the simple reason that in type not every font (subset) is fit for every use. As a 9 point roman perfectly fit for newspaper print. But muddy on art paper. As a 12 point even unfriendly to the eye. Times Bold same story. Shaped for 12 point newspaper lead text but absolutely unsuitable for headings.
Before fast food arrived and the chef knew what he was serving people that worked with type were -and still are- very concious about this but in the mass consumpion world of the computer type use the differentiation is beginning to blur as so many of us are given the ability to do amazing things with typefaces and the programmers that wrote the software did not know the difference between a building and a building.
OK?
