The parent company of the defunct food magazine Gourmet is not pleased that a group of journalists have revived it on their own.
In January, a group of five food writers announced that they were restarting the once-prestigious food magazine, which magazine giant Condé Nast had shuttered in 2009 amid the company’s post-financial crisis woes. The group snatched the trademark after writer Sam Dean noticed Condé had allowed it to lapse in 2021.
The magazine giant initially said nothing when Gourmet relaunched as worker-owned collective publishing on Ghost, the independent newsletter and content platform. But in February, Condé Nast filed a lawsuit against Goulash Unlimited, the LLC set up by the new Gourmet owners.
