Government Executive is an American media publication based in Washington, D.C., which covers daily government business for civilians, federal bureaucrats, and military officials.[1] Government Executive is part of GovExec,[2] which is owned by Growth Catalyst Partners.[3]
History
[edit | edit source]20th century
[edit | edit source]Government Executive's first issue, published in March 1969, featured a formal portrait of Richard Nixon and the headline: "What Government Can Expect from President Nixon". In 1987, the magazine was acquired by the National Journal Group, which was acquired a decade later by David G. Bradley, a businessman.[4]
In 1999, Bradley bought The Atlantic Monthly magazine and renamed his company Atlantic Media.[5]
21st century
[edit | edit source]In 2007, Government Executive's information technology reporting was spun off into a new publication, NextGov, which covers technology and the future of government. In 2013, the company founded Defense One, which covers emerging national security issues.[6][7] In 2015, it founded Route Fifty, which covers ideas in state and local government.[8] The four publications, plus an associated events division and the Studio 2G content marketing division,[9] became known as Government Executive Media Group.
In 2020, Atlantic Media sold Government Executive Media Group to Growth Catalyst Partners, a private-equity firm.[10] In 2021, City & State was acquired by Government Executive Media Group.[11]
In 2021, longtime editor-in-chief Tom Shoop stepped down and was replaced by Tanya Ballard Brown, most recently of NPR.[12]
In 2021, GovExec also acquired 1105 Media Inc's Public Sector 360 Group, including Federal Computer Week and Washington Technology.[13]
