History

[edit]

Steve Hull founded Bethesda Magazine in 2004.[2] In April 2015 Bethesda Magazine acquired an online news provider Bethesda Now and integrated it into its website.[1] Bethesda Now, founded in 2012, was folded into the magazine's daily news service Bethesda Beat.[3]

In March 2021, Hull announced that he had sold Bethesda Magazine and Bethesda Beat to Scott and Jillian Copeland of Rockville, Maryland.[4] In February 2023, Bethesda Magazine rebranded to MoCo360.[5] In February 2024, the magazine was acquired by Today Media.[6] Bethesda Beat was renamed to Bethesda Today in January 2025.[7]
