1. What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?
I thinkBauerMedia;publishersof Q,Mojoand Kerrangwouldbe the bestto distribute my
magazine.These are all mostlyrock/metal magazines;howevermymagazine “Highwayto October”
ismostlyhip-hop/rap,andsome indierock.Ifeel like mymagazine couldfill agapinthe publishing,
and wouldbringthe companya newaudience of teenagers/youngadults.Ichose BaueroverTime
Inc. UK because aside fromNME,theydo yacht and shootingmagazines.NMEalreadycoverssome
hip-hop/rap,soIdon’tfeel like mymagazinewouldaddtotheiraudience orname.However,the
musicmagazinespublishedbyBauerMediaaren’tadvertisedtothe rebelliousteenagersof today.
My magazine isratherexplicitinnature,andsomay not be acceptedintopublishing.But,Kerrang
had plentyof explicitlanguage,sothiscouldworkinmyfavour. Q magazine coverssome hip-hop,
but notmuch, somy magazine wouldbe betterforthis.
