Note that with this issue the format has changed to a newspaper tabloid size. "The change in format for this issue is part of a process of launching a new magazine which will build on the already existing sections of Prison news service and The marionette. We will be adding a third section which will be much like the old Bulldozer magazine. One of the main strengths of Bulldozer was in the participation by various prisoners contributing diverse articles exploring various aspects of prison life."--Page 3.

The Prison News Network (PNS) focuses on political trials, repressive abuses of imprisonment and the resistance to such oppression. It was joined with another existing prison periodical called Marionette made by prisoners for prisoners and the general public to spread awareness of the conditions prisons, Marion Penitentiary, Illinois in particular.
