Description
Sightline Media Group is a United States company that publishes newspapers, magazines, websites, and other publications about the U.S. and other militaries.
History
The company was founded in 1940 as the Army Times Publishing Company.
In August 1997, it was purchased by the Gannett Company.
As part of the spinoff of digital and broadcasting properties in 2015, Gannett spun off these properties to Tegna. In March 2016, Tegna sold Sightline Media Group to Regent, a Los Angeles-based private equity firm controlled by investor Michael Reinstein.
In 2011, hackers breached a Sightline database of subscribers, obtaining their names, passwords, email addresses, duty status, paygrade, and branch of service.
