BAUER Media

Conglomerates like Bauer and Hearst Communications are still primarily print publishers with
some associated television and radio.
MOJO is published by Bauer Media.
This company owns over 600 magazines, including two other UK music magazines – Q and Kerrang! The company has diversified the MOJO brand, offering mojo4music.com online in order to reduce the risk of only operating in one media form.

Bauer also produced a digital radio station which was called Mojo Radio and transmitted across digital TV. It ceased broadcasting in 2008 in order to save Bauer money.
