New Jersey-based Wainscot Media announced this week that it has acquired a pair of B2B healthcare industry magazines from Scranton Gillette Communications for an undisclosed sum.

The acquisition represents a return to medical publishing for Wainscot CEO Mark Dowden, a former longtime exec at Dowden Health Media, which was acquired by Lebhar-Friedman in 2006.

In addition to its various regional healthy living titles, Wainscot counts several major New Jersey hospitals as custom publishing clients. "The deal is a natural outgrowth of our medical publishing heritage,"... Continue reading at 'Folio Magazine'
