Gizmodo Media Group Sold


Gizmodo Media Group is an online media company and blog network operated by Univision Communications in its Fusion Media Group division.

Univision made good on a promise to sell its online properties on Monday when it announced that it has sold Gizmodo Media Group, which includes the family of websites formerly known as Gawker Media.
