About Vox Media
Vox Media is a media company combining explanatory journalism, magazine publishing, podcasting and nonfiction entertainment production. Its current portfolio brings together Vox, New York magazine and its affiliated publications, the Vox Media Podcast Network, and Vox Media Studios. Its work spans news, politics, culture, lifestyle and consumer shopping, reaching audiences through print, digital publications, audio, television, streaming and live events.
Publishing and storytelling
The publishing business includes the biweekly print edition of New York and continuous digital coverage from Intelligencer, The Cut, Vulture, The Strategist, Curbed and Grub Street. Across these publications and Vox, the company produces explanatory reporting, long-form features, investigations, cultural criticism, political commentary and shopping analysis. Its publishing operations also include digital subscriber membership platforms.
Vox Media Studios develops, produces and distributes nonfiction television, documentary series and streaming programming. Established in 2019, the studio has worked with partners including Netflix, PBS, CNN and Hulu. The company's production activities connect its editorial reporting and storytelling capabilities with longer-form screen entertainment.
The Vox Media Podcast Network develops and distributes daily, narrative and interview-led audio programming. Its commercial offering includes sponsorship execution and cross-platform distribution. Live podcast stages, conferences, festivals and cultural events extend this programming into in-person formats, including the Vox Media Podcast Stage at SXSW.
Development and current focus
Founded in 2003 as SportsBlogs, Inc., the business began as a network of community sports blogs before expanding beyond sports and adopting the Vox Media name in 2011. Subsequent editorial launches and acquisitions broadened its publishing, audio and entertainment activities.
A corporate division completed in July 2026 placed the current publishing, podcast and studio portfolio under Lupa Systems. Former technology, lifestyle and sports publications transferred to Penske Media Corporation. The continuing Vox Media business focuses on journalism and premium programming, supported by advertising partnerships, podcast sponsorships, social activations and custom brand storytelling.
