Feminist news site Jezebel, which was shut down earlier this month, has been sold to a new owner.
Paste Media, known for its music coverage, said it had taken on the brand and planned to relaunch soon.
It marks the latest revival for a site that started in 2007 as part of the Gawker empire and in the interim has had several owners.
