Remnant Media
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Remnant Media is a British company which publishes a variety of pornographic magazines.
On 1 March 2004 Richard Desmond's company Northern and Shell sold a package of 45 titles, for about £20m, to Remnant Media in order to help reshape Desmond's image as part of his strategy to bid for the The Daily Telegraph.[1]
The Bank of Scotland became embroiled in controversy by lending Remnant Media £5 million towards the financing package.[2]
The company's most notorious title is Asian Babes magazine. Other magazines published under its Fantasy Publications brand include Readers Wives, Horny Housewives, Mega Boobs, Mothers-in-Law, Big Ones, Just 18 and 60 Plus.
Remnant Media also publishes the gay lifestyle magazine attitude.
