It's back on the stands baby!

After closing last week, a lot of journalists were sad to see the demise of the infamous Press Gazette. But it is back!

Press Gazette has been bought by specialist information group Wilmington and is back on the newsstand.

Wilmington, the specialist information and training group, has acquired assets from the administrator of Press Gazette Limited and is resurrecting the business by applying the skills and resources of its specialist Business Communications division.

Tony Loynes, the new editor-in-chief, said: "Sadly Press Gazette has missed an issue, but we will be making that up to the loyal subscribers of the publication. We intend to develop the print, the web presence and events side of Press Gazette.

The future looks bright for the Gazette then. I am happy to see it back after we learnt how much it really does help us student journalists with jobs and information on the world of journalism!

Rock on the next issue.
