what happened to nat geo

According to the search results, National Geographic has undergone several changes in recent years, including a change in ownership and a shift towards digital publication. In June 2023, it was reported that National Geographic had laid off its last staff writers and would no longer be sold on US newsstands. As part of cost-cutting measures instituted by the publications parent company, Disney, the magazine will no longer be available on newsstands in the US as of next year. However, National Geographic has stated that it will continue to publish a monthly magazine that is dedicated to exceptional multi-platform storytelling with cultural impact, and that staffing changes will not change its ability to do this work. Instead, the organizations future editorial work will be done by freelance writers and the few editors remaining on staff.
