Institutions - NME

The magazine that i decided to research was NME due to the fact that this genre is very similar to the genre i chose for my magazine. I found that NME is owned by IPC media which is then ownded by Time Warner. I found this out by researching NME on wikipedia and then clicking on the company which owns NME down the side. It then took me to the official webside of IPC media and therefore i found out what kind of magazines and webistes this company produce and own. I then found out that this company was owned by another company called time warner. I then copied this from the offical website. - http://www.ipcmedia.com/
