Sports Illustrated is an American sports magazine published every August by a company called Authentic Brands Group (abbreviated to ABG or Authentic Brands). It is the most popular sports magazine in the United States, with a readership of over one million per issue, and has won the National Magazine Award for General Excellence twice. It is also known for its annual Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, which has been published since 1964, and has spawned other complementary media works and products.In 2018, the magazine was sold to Meredith Corporation by means of its acquisition of Time Inc., but Meredith stated that it planned to sell Sports Illustrated as it did not align with its lifestyle properties. While Meredith initially planned to continue publishing its print and digital properties under license from ABG (who planned to leverage the Sports Illustrated brand in other markets), ABG later announced that it would instead give the publishing rights to theMaven, Inc.
