Vice Media has acquired Refinery29 for an undisclosed sum.
Just days after it emerged that New York Magazine is joining the Vox family, Refinery29 also revealed that it has a new owner — and it’s one more known for its testosterone-fueled past than female-friendly present.
The purchase price was not revealed, but the platform, which focuses on beauty, fashion, entertainment, news and lifestyle trends from a female perspective, was previously valued at around $500 million. “Vice Media Group and Refinery29, two of the strongest independent voices in the industry, will continue to build a scaled global and diversified media company,” she said.
