I have decided to use Bauer Media Group as my magazine Publisher as it is most suitable. The reason for this is that it publishes two well known music magazines - Kerrang! and Q; however, it does not publish a music magazine that covers older Rock music just as much as it covers modern Rock music - the genre which I have chosen for my magazine.
