Outlet track record
Qz
U.S. center-left
Quartz is owned by Redbrick, a Canadian software company that acquired it from G/O Media in April 2025 and laid off most of its newsroom shortly afterward. The outlet was founded in 2012 as a business-focused, digitally-native news site and historically leaned center-left, favoring progressive framings on issues like climate policy and global trade. After the near-elimination of its editorial staff and a heavy shift to AI-generated content, the outlet has been described by its own co-founder as a 'zombie brand.'
