The Bold Italic is an online publication based in San Francisco. It was founded as an online magazine in 2009,[1] as a collaboration between design firm IDEO and media company Gannett, who sold the magazine to local owners in 2015. In 2019 the magazine was acquired by Medium.[2] In December 2022 Medium transferred ownership of the publication to GrowSF, a local political group.[3]
The Bold Italic covers culture, events, local businesses and news in San Francisco, and is well known for series such as event-based bingo cards, Kid Food Reviews, and Made Up Charts. The style of reporting is often humorous and aimed at a young audience.[4] The Bold Italic was a Webby honoree and an IDSA finalist, and was named best webzine by SF Weekly .[4] In 2024, it won a San Francisco Press Club award for its photo coverage of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence event, Hunky Jesus.[5]
