The Bold Italic is an online,New Journalism culture magazine based in San Francisco. The magazine was founded in 2009,as a collaboration between design firm IDEO and media company Gannett,who sold the magazine to local owners in 2015. After 6 years of publishing,The Bold Italic was shut down by Gannett on April 7,2015. No official reason was given for the shutdown,though Gannett had taken other measures to cut costs across all its publications in recent years,including layoffs. Shortly thereafter,in June 2015,Gannett sold the site to new owners,who began publishing again immediately. In April 2016,the site announced its partnership with Medium,a San Francisco-based online publishing platform,and continues to publish articles daily.
