Gadfly Online

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gadfly Magazine was a periodical that was created in February 1997 and launched as a full-size print publication in January 1998.[1] The publisher is the Rutherford Institute.[2] The magazine is based in Charlottesville, Virginia. At the Utne Reader's Eleventh Annual Alternative Press Awards, in 1999, it won for best Cultural Coverage.[3][4]

After the publication of the last print issue, in March/April 2001, "the creative forces behind the magazine" launched Gadfly Online, which was published for a little over a year. It remains an online presence, as an archive and guide to back issues.[1]

The subject matter centers on popular culture, including music, stand-up comedy, and film; the first issue of the magazine's print version gave a preview of The Matrix.

Gadfly Online published such writers as Andrew Loog Oldham, Tom Bradley, , Nile Southern (son of Terry Southern), Stephen Lee Naish, Marty Wombacher and the rock critic David Dalton. The magazine was relaunched as online publication in 2011.[4]
