Who owns Forbes? June 2023

Latest comment: 2 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion

Reading an article that was supposedly from Forbes magazine that was emailed to me on June 10, 2023, I find phrasing and view-point different from what I expect from "Forbes". The Wikipedia article about "Forbes" media starts with Whale Media being the majority owner - but, at the very end of the article, it says Austin Russell (young billionaire) bought it in May, 2023. Who owns "Forbes"? 2600:1700:AD47:6830:65B0:A2BE:1CFA:C351 (talk) 14:39, 10 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

I've deleted outdated info in lead on ownership and sourced 2023 info in this regard. Significant other info/sourcing in this article is outdated and no longer accurate. Moreover, as the print "Forbes" presumably moves toward oblivion, "Forbes.com" has for some years defined the brand. Yet apparently, an editor here sees this article as primarily about the print magazine, which is fine. At present (aug. 2023) it does still exist!

Strangely, an editor insists on reverting this article to inaccurate information based on outdated sources. The action was taken with the claim that the information was "uncited." Yet it was indeed offered with a sourcce. I will restore it and add more sources. 32.221.207.102 (talk) 23:24, 6 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Forbes councils

There is a redirect from Forbes Business Council to this page. But when I got here, I didn't see a anything on Forbes Business Council so I decided to create a Forbes councils section, yesterday. I just came to see if I can make more contributions to it, only to and find out that it has been deleted for reason that my citations are from paid blogs. Forbes councils do exist, and there's a lot of information about it online. I would suggest that anyone who has time and can identify credible sources should please rewrite the section and make appropriate citations as I cannot help beyond what I have already done. I think it's good we have a section on this. Bemmax (talk) 05:53, 27 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

How is it an "American" business magazine.

Doesn't seem like they're limited to American business. 2604:3D09:D78:1000:A9B:D750:207B:407D (talk) 04:08, 18 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
