It’s not meant to be an all-out media database… just a cheap option to help writers properly address their queries. I’m a PR person myself, so I’m familiar with Bacon’s. They’re great, but I’ve always been partial to Burrelle’s media database personally. :)

Jenn,
I looked into mastheads.org, but found that the Writer’s Market has more comprenhensive information (what types of stories they look for, rough pay scales, etc.), although it’s not as up-to-date. Bacon’s Media Source is the ultimate resource for PR professionals, because it lets you compile media lists, print mailing labels, etc.
