THE DAILY BEAST is an online venture started by magazine editor Tina Brown (Tatler, Vanity Fair, the New Yorker, Talk) and IAC Chairman Barry Diller. The Beast aims to “curate” news for readers and provide original reporting and opinion. In 2010, the Daily Beast merged with Newsweek. However, the move failed to save the print edition of Newsweek, which published its final print issue in 2012. In 2013, the Daily Beast’s owners put the diminished Newsweek up for sale.
