Welcome to The Wire Report: Letter from the editor

Today I’m happy to introduce you, our readers, to Hill Times Publishing’s newest service, The Wire Report

In fact anticipation has been building for a number of weeks now. At Hill Times Publishing, myself, publisher Anne Marie Creskey, reader sales and services director Ryan O’Neill and online services manager Dan Hulton have been hard at work planning for the exciting launch of this niche news service.

Late last year, Hill Times Publishing acquired four historic newsletters that have been described as the “bibles” of Canada’s communications industry: Canadian New Media, Network Letter, Canadian Communications Reports, and Report on Wireless. The 20-year history of these newsletters has seen owners Evert Communications, Decima Research, Dovercourt Editorial Services, and now Hill Times Publishing.

These newsletters and their brands will continue, forming the foundation of The Wire Report’s coverage of the digital media, telecommunications, broadcast, and wireless sectors.

With the intelligent work of new staff reporters Jonathan Migneault and Karen Fournier, as well as exclusive contributions from freelancers, The Wire Report will provide industry insiders, government decision makers, and other interested readers with news, insight and analysis on regulatory and industry developments affecting these sectors.

Hill Times Publishing is an independent company specializing in niche news. Its publications—The Hill Times, Embassy, DailyPublinet.ca, and now The Wire Report—demonstrate its success.

Given the company’s independence, respected journalism and expertise in federal politics, Parliament and government, you can expect more.

Expect more original reporting and independent, “fear nor favour” journalism; and in addition to industry news, expect more exclusive stories about regulatory processes and developments affecting key players in the communications industry.

Thanks for reading, and with your attention and feedback I look forward to making The Wire Report a top, necessary news source covering Canada’s communications industry.
