Military.com
Military.com is a website that provides news and information about the United States military, service members, veterans, and their families as well as foreign policy and broader national security issues. Founded in 1999, the site has been a division of Monster Worldwide since 2004. Among the company's revenue streams are advertising, veteran employment, and lead generation. About 10 million people have registered on the site, according to the company. The site offers daily news, investigations and feature reporting, and a dozen newsletters. Sub-channels include information for spouses, resources to use the GI Bill, and entertainment and fitness. Military.com also offers three apps on iOS and Android: Military News App, Military Pay App and Transition App to help servicemembers move to civilian life. In addition, the website also produces several podcasts, including its news program Fire Watch. History
The website was founded by Christopher Michel in 1999 and went live in 2000. Its advisory board originally included two former members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, as well as other academic and business leaders. In 2004, Military.com was acquired by Monster Worldwide in 2004 for around $39.5 million. In August 2016, Ranstad Holding acquired Monster Worldwide. Previous presidents of Military.com include Greg Smith, a retired U.S. Navy rear admiral who was president of Military.com and a vice-president at Monster from November 2014 to August 2017, and Terry McCreary, a retired rear admiral who was president of the company from 2010 to 2014. Criticisms
Military.com has been criticized for taking advertising from for-profit colleges. Its former partner in lead generation, QuinStreet, previously settled with the U.S. government after being accused of preying on veterans. Military.com ended its relationship with QuinStreet in 2019. References
