TORONTO--(Marketwire - January 24, 2008) - Marketwire, a full-service newswire and communications workflow solutions provider, today introduced its enhanced industry-leading online media management tool, Mediahub (formerly Listlogix). Already recognized for its intuitive, user-friendly interface, Mediahub now offers PR, IR and communications professionals the most accurate, independently sourced data, featuring one of the most comprehensive databases of media contacts and editorial opportunities throughout North America, Europe, Latin America and Asia.

The new Mediahub now boasts a media database with more than 600,000 media contacts and 300,000 editorial opportunities -- twice that of previous versions, making it one of the largest in the market. Mediahub's speed and enhanced functionalities work together like no other media management tool, giving users the flexibility to create lists, attach press releases and distribute news with a few simple mouse clicks. In addition, Mediahub is uniquely positioned as the leader among media management tools offering the industry's most accurate, up-to-date and independent media data, culled daily by Marketwire's dedicated global research team.

"One of the most critical elements of a communications professional's workflow is effective organization, management and utilization of their media and influencer relationships," said Catharine Hancock, director, media management and workflow solutions, Marketwire. "Mediahub provides peace of mind to our clients by ensuring their news reaches the right contacts at the right time in the best possible way, while helping them effectively nurture relationships with the contacts most important to them."

Mediahub easily manages media contacts and helps users create more powerful media lists in seconds by allowing them to take advantage of complex search criteria or import contacts of their own to build the perfect list, and send to journalists and other media contacts based on their individual preferences for receiving information. With Mediahub, PR, IR and communications professionals can now:

--  Perform quick or advanced searches, and filter down to the most
    specific level possible using parameters such as geography, media type,
    ethnicity, language, subject focus, target audience, demographics, and more

--  Enter notes about specific contacts and campaigns
--  Send basic news alerts, social media releases, standard press
    releases, earnings releases and media advisories
--  Distribute directly from the results screen, without exporting a data
    file or performing additional steps

    media relations conversations, activities and projects
