NEW MAGAZINE FOR BC MEDIA TYPES
By Adnews Staff
West Coast members of the media and communications industries will soon have an organ to call their own. The first issue of Blitz magazine will launch on September 15 with a controlled circulation of 50,000. The bi-monthly glossy tabloid will cover the business of communications and media as it happens in British Columbia. "There has long been a need for a trade publication covering this large and influential sector in BC," said Louise Aird, a long-time Vancouver writer who is behind the magazine's creation. "Previously, all that was available were periodicals out of Toronto. Blitz is a dynamic review-style publication which will do justice to the maturity and professionalism of the various BC industry sectors."
