The feminist blog site Jezebel has found a home after it was shuttered by its parent company this month.
Culture publication Paste acquired Jezebel on Tuesday from former parent company G/O Media.
The terms of the deal haven’t been made public.
“The acquisition means that the critical information and content that Jezebel readers have come to rely on will live on,” Paste Editor-in-Chief Josh Jackson said in a statement.
Paste said it will immediately begin rebuilding the staff of the feminist publication and that previous writers are the first on its call list.
The deal comes after G/O Media announced earlier in November that it would shut down Jezebel and lay off all staff, citing choppy economic waters. G/O CEO Jim Spanfeller said he had yet to give up on finding a buyer for the site. Now he has one.
Jezebel thrived in the 2010s as a punchy site that focused on progressive commentary, usually from a feminist lens.
