Salon.com, the website that became popular in the early days of the internet offering cultural commentary, progressive political analysis, lifestyle content and more, is shutting down, the company announced Thursday.

“When Salon launched in November 1995, the web was a very different place. A small group of journalists set out to create something original: a publication with a strong voice, a curiosity about the world and a belief that the internet could bring journalism and readers together in new ways. They helped pioneer a form of journalism that would come to define an entirely new era of publishing,” the editorial team wrote in a statement.
