What is an institution?
An establishment in charge of distributing, marketing and producing different media products:
- Time Inc.
- Bauer Media Group
- Emap
- Development Hell Ltd
Time Inc.-
Time Inc. UK is Britain’s leading publisher of print and digital magazine content. With more than 60 iconic brands - including Decanter, Country Life, Horse & Hound, NME, What's On TV and Wallpaper* - Time Inc. UK (formerly IPC Media) creates content for multiple platforms, across print, online, mobile, tablets and experiences.
Bauer-
Bauer Media is a division of the Bauer Media Group, Europe’s largest privately owned publishing Group. The Group is a worldwide media empire offering over 300 magazines in 15 countries, as well as online, TV and radio stations.
These two institutions are both linked to the distribution, marketing, and producing of NME, one of the largest British music journalism magazine, and it is largely associated with rock, alternative and indie music. It was the first British paper to include a singles chart, in the edition of 14 November 1952. In the 1970s it became the best-selling British music newspaper. During the period 1972 to 1976, it was particularly associated with gonzo journalism (self-involved reporting), then became closely associated with punk rock through the writings of Julie Burchill, Paul Morley and Tony Parsons. It started as a music newspaper, and gradually moved toward a magazine format during the 1980s and 1990s, changing from newsprint in 1998. However the main company that owns and helped NME become one of biggest magazines and had further audiences to reach is Time Inc., which would mean more publicity for my magazine and a higher chance of it becoming successful and a popular magazine, producing more income overall.
