Them (stylised them.) is an American online LGBT magazine launched in October 2017 by Phillip Picardi and owned by Condé Nast.[1]

History

In 2017 Picardi, then the director of Teen Vogue, proposed to Anna Wintour, Condé Nast's artistic director, that the company create an online, LGBT-focused media platform.[2] Founding editors included Meredith Talusan, Tyler Ford, and James Clarizio,[3][4] and launch partners included Burberry, Google, Lyft, and GLAAD.[5]

Picardi left Them. and Condé Nast in the fall of 2018[6] to begin working as editor-in-chief of Out magazine.[7]
