Radar Online is an American entertainment and gossip website that was first published as a print and online publication in September 2003 before becoming exclusively online.[1][2][3] As of 2008, the magazine has been owned by the publisher American Media Inc.[4] American Media's former Chief Content Officer, Dylan Howard, oversaw the publication until 2020.[5][6]
The magazine Radar published articles on entertainment, fashion, politics, and human interest and was founded and edited by Maer Roshan in September 2003.[7][8][9] After a series of three test issues focused on satire, he relaunched it in 2005 and again in 2006 with help from investors and family members, including Jeffrey Epstein.[10][11][12]Radar was awarded a General Excellence nomination by the American Society of Magazine Editors in 2007. Its website, Radar Online, earned an audience of one million a month soon after it launched.[citation needed]
The print magazine was suddenly shuttered in 2008 after its primary backer, billionaire Ron Burkle, who owned a substantial interest in Star and National Enquirer publisher American Media, withdrew. Radar Online was relaunched in March 2009 with a rebranding, focusing on celebrity items about gossip, fashion, and pop culture. All articles previously published by Radar Online were erased from the site.
