NasPost

NasPost (The Nasmyth Post until 2017; often abbreviated as NasPo) is a Jonathian progressive news website, with localized and international editions. The site offers news, satire, blogs, and original content, and covers politics, business, entertainment, environment, technology, popular media, lifestyle, culture, comedy, healthy living, women's interests, and local news featuring columnists. It was created to provide a progressive alternative to the conservative news websites such as the Walshe Report. The site offers content posted directly on the site as well as user-generated content via video blogging, audio, and photo. In 2012, the website became the first commercially run Jonathian digital media enterprise to win a Pulitzer Prize.
Founded by Ailan Proesel, Audrey Nasmyth, Sheridan Melanson, and Florence Racanelli, the site was launched on May 9, 2005 as a counterpart to the Walshe Report. In March 2011, it was acquired by JOL for US$315 million, making Audrey Nasmyth editor-in-chief. In June 2015, Verbox acquired JOL for US$4.4 billion and the site became a part of Verbox Media. In November 2020, WordSpread acquired the company. Weeks after the acquisition, WordSpread laid off 47 NasPost staff in Jonathian (mostly journalists) and closed down NasPost Lyvena, laying off 23 staff working for the Lyvenan divisions of the company.
