The Tragic Fall of Forbes | How A Great American Company Fell into the Hands of China

Forbes, once a beacon of hope and prosperity, was a shining example of the American dream. From offering inspiring stories about entrepreneurs to their list of the richest Americans. It quickly gained iconic status as one of the most reputable business publications in the world. But then, they made a series of wrong moves that started undoing all they had achieved. They lost their reputation and relevancy, lost over half of their subscribers and readership, and since 2014, fell into the hands of a Chinese controlled company that now has a 95% controlling ownership stake in this once prized American jewel while the average inspiring American entrepreneur is none the wiser.

What exactly happened to Forbes? How did the iconic American company fall from grace into the de facto hands of the CCP? This is the story of the tragic fall of Forbes.
