Our take
ATTN: is a media company that creates short-form news content for social media, designed to engage Millenials and Gen-Z. It stands out by covering topics often overlooked or underexplored by traditional news outlets, such as drug policies, feminism, and income inequality.
While platforms like Vox Media and BuzzFeed mix entertainment with news, ATTN: has carved out a unique space focused on important issues and presenting them in an easily digestible format. With a blend of humor and pop culture references, ATTN: connects with young audiences, earning over 18M followers.
ATTN: has reached major milestones that position it for continued success. Its partnership with Instagram, which is typically reluctant to compensate publishers, is a breakthrough that will help drive impactful content. Additionally, the 2022 acquisition by Candle Media sets the stage for even greater growth, with strategic plans to expand ATTN:'s reach across multiple platforms while staying true to its core mission.
