The Guardian on the financial attacks on the Journalists' weekly magazine the Press Gazette

Quote:

Wilful neglect
Journalists should be able to keep their own trade paper afloat - but this will be Press Gazette's final issue as a weekly publication. Why has it become such a poisoned chalice, asks former editor Ian Reeves
............In each case, the issue has been about control over a title that often prints uncomfortable truths. With the regionals this took the form of removing the lucrative jobs advertising that had once been Press Gazette's lifeblood. Even when we offered free recruitment advertising to their editors - who wanted to use Press Gazette - most were barred from taking it by their bosses. This was to protect HoldtheFrontPage, a website owned by a consortium of the big four publishers - Trinity Mirror, Johnston Press, Northcliffe and Newsquest - which publishes uncontroversial stories about regional journalism.
For the nationals, the battleground has always been the British Press Awards - the event that has become the magazine's commercial lifeline. It has been plagued by petulant, childish behaviour, both on the night itself and during the weeks of aftermath as strutting editors summoned PG's editor for a lecture on why the judging system must have been rigged; one year I traipsed around the offices of 14 national newspaper editors.....
