National Geographic Magazine Now For-Profit Thanks to $725M Deal with Fox
Since 1888, National Geographic magazine has been the official journal of the non-profit National Geographic Society headquartered in Washington, D.C. Starting today, however, the magazine won't be non-profit like the society is.
