By Press Gazette

In the latest edition of Press Gazette – Journalism Weekly (13/9/2012) – we investigate reports that the Johnston Press 170-title relaunch strategy is failing places.

While some insiders claim the relaunches have led to some disastrous sales declines, chief executive Ashley Highfield insists that the relaunched titles are making more money both through advertising and high cover prices.

We also have exclusive news of new hacking claimants, an in-depth report from Andrew Pugh on journalism under fire in Mexico and Sun investigations editor Brian Flynn on why Leveson needs to understand that redtops do engage in hard-hitting investigations.
