GayWired.com joins the Unzipped Media family

June 24, 2009 (LOS ANGELES) – GayWired.com, the premiere entertainment news portal for the gay community, has been acquired by Unzipped Media. GayWired.com will continue to provide the best daily roundup of breaking news, politics, entertainment, photos, and gossip from a progressive, youthful viewpoint that speaks to the LGBT community and pop culture fans alike.

“Gays and lesbians have always been savvy when it comes to popular culture, and GayWired.com is a long-standing destination for gay entertainment news on the Web,” said Dustin Tyner, the Group Publisher of Unzipped Media. GayWired.com has a sexy take on pop culture while providing content that’s 100% safe for work.

Acquiring GayWired.com will allow Unzipped Media to reach outside of the adult marketplace to become a diverse entertainment company. GayWired.com has always performed well in Google searches and is one of the oldest, most established gay portals on the Web.

“GayWired.com has become the go-to source for a queer perspective on breaking entertainment news,” said Sean Carnage, Editor of GayWired.com. “We are thrilled to be a part of the Unzipped Media Family.”
