The Press Gazette is Saved

The magazine has been bought by Mike Danson's Progressive Media group. When Wilmington announced a fortnight ago that they were closing the magazine it was withdrawn from the Exact Editions shop, though subscribers still have access to their accounts. It looks as though the magazine will resume publication in May and we hope that it will continue in its successful digital form on the Exact Editions platform. More definite news later in the week.

A new publisher with entrepreneurial vision could push the magazine back into the mainstream of British media coverage. Promoting the digital edition and selling subscriptions to it at an attractive price should be a part of that vision.
