Print youth pub killed, but lives on online
CanWest MediaWorks is shutting the print edition of its free daily youth newspaper "Dose" -- which was launched in April 2005 for 18- to 34-year-olds -- but keep a version of the publication going online.
CanWest MediaWorks said the online service dose.ca will become the youth channel of its canada.com network.
"In this very competitive newspaper market, we feel the printed publication will not produce the financial results we expect over the long term," Peter Viner, CEO of CanWest MediaWorks Limited Partnership, told Reuters. "However, we see a growing product in the Dose online and mobile offering which we will continue to develop."
