VegNews
American vegan lifestyle and food magazine, founded in 2000, one of the longest-running commercial vegan media properties.
VegNews is an American vegan lifestyle magazine and digital media outlet, founded in 2000 by Joseph Connelly. It publishes a print magazine, a website, newsletters, a podcast network, and a set of recurring awards including the VegNews Veggie Awards.
Why it matters
VegNews is one of the longest continuously operating commercial vegan media properties in the English-speaking world. Its editorial range — covering nutrition, recipes, restaurants, celebrity features, legal and policy news, and industry reporting — helped build a vocabulary for vegan consumer media that subsequent outlets have borrowed from.
Coverage
Recurring sections include food and recipes, health and nutrition, travel, products and brand reviews, animal rights news, and business reporting on the plant-based sector. The annual Veggie Awards provide one of the longer running benchmarks of consumer preferences in the vegan food market.
Corporate
VegNews Media Corporation is privately held and based in Los Angeles. The print magazine continues to publish on a bimonthly cadence; the digital publication is updated daily.
