‘Forbes’ and transgender people

Forbes is an American business media organization. Their coverage of trans people has been generally fair and accurate.

Background

Founded in 1917 by B.C. Forbes and Walter Drey, the publication is known for its coverage of finance, industry, investing, and marketing topics. Forbes publishes articles on a wide range of subjects, including entrepreneurship, technology, leadership, and lifestyle, and it is especially noted for its lists and rankings, such as the Forbes 400 (wealthiest Americans) and the annual list of billionaires.

Forbes’ self-publishing platform, including BrandVoice, lets experts and writers post directly on Forbes.com. It expands coverage in business, tech, and lifestyle while generating revenue through sponsored content. Though criticized for limited editorial oversight, the platform is a key part of Forbes’ digital strategy and online presence.
