The Wire, Atlantic Media’s news aggregation site, has announced it will shut down in late September/early October, according to a memo published on Gawker. Launched in 2009 as “The Atlantic Wire,” the site first offered commentary, then morphed into a news aggregator as simply “The Wire” in 2011. Those currently staffing The Wire will be reassigned elsewhere within Atlantic Media.
