Deadline.com

Deadline.com, part of Jay Penske's PMC, is an online magazine, founded by Nikki Finke.

Publication

The site is updated several times a day, with the infotainment industry as its focus.

History

Finke began writing her LA Weekly column Deadline Hollywood in June 2002, and began the Deadline Hollywood Daily (DHD) blog in March 2006 as an online version of her column. In 2009, she sold DHD to Mail.com Media for a reported "seven-figure payday", under an agreement by which she would hire an additional writer but remain the site's editor. In September 2009, the name was changed to Deadline.com and additional cities were added, including New York and London. In November 2013, Finke left Deadline after a year-long disagreement between Finke and Penske, who had bought Variety, a competing trade magazine and website.
