Should I use Press Gazette?

Not disclosed - pressgazette.co.uk

· 1 month ago

Nobody should buy this: Press Gazette is a UK trade magazine covering journalism and media, not a software product. Read it if you work in media or PR; look elsewhere if you were shopping for a tool.

Confidence

Medium. Based on ~40 public sources; many describe unrelated US namesakes (Green Bay Press-Gazette, News-Press & Gazette), so claims about the UK site draw on a handful of solid sources.
