Queerty is an online magazine and newspaper covering LGBTQ-oriented entertainment and news, founded in 2005 by David Hauslaib.[1][2] As of June 2015, the site had more than five million monthly unique visitors.[3][needs update]

History

[edit]

Queerty was founded by David Hauslaib in 2005, with Bradford Shellhammer serving as founding editor. The site briefly shut down operations in 2011, before being sold to Q.Digital, Inc., the current owners and operators.[4][5]

Newsweek called Queerty "a leading site for gay issues" in 2010.[6]

Queerty Awards

[edit]

Since 2012,[7] the site bestows the Queerty Awards or "Queerties", in which their readers vote for the "best of LGBTQ Media and Culture" every March.[8]
