JOE (JOE.ie, JOE.co.uk) is a news website aimed at young men in the UK and Ireland with over 2 million unique visitors per month.[1] It is owned by Maximum Media.[2][3][4][5][6] The original website www.joe.ie was founded by Irish entrepreneur Niall McGarry.[3][4] Her.ie is a related website aimed at young women in Ireland. HerFamily.ie also forms part of the group.[7]
JOE.ie
The site was founded in 2010 and it was nominated for a Golden Spider Award in the One to Watch category in its first year and in the News and Entertainment category in 2013.[8][9][10] Showbiz website Goss.ie described it as "more influential" than traditional media in August 2016.[11] It is edited by Paddy McKenna.[2] The site's android app has had over 50,000 installs.[12] In November 2016, The Advertising Standards Authority for Ireland upheld a complaint about an ad for Sprite featured on the site.[2]
SportsJOE.ie
SportsJOE.ie was launched in 2014, as an offshoot of JOE.ie, offering "in-depth analysis".[1] Daily Telegraph and Sunday Independent sports columnist Dion Fanning moved to the site in 2015.[1][13]
JOE.co.uk
The millennial[14] and "men, not lads" site was launched in September 2015 with Tony Barrett of The Times and former footballer Ledley King among the contributors.[15][16][4][7]
BBC political researcher Joey D'Urso cited content from Joe.co.uk – such as a video superimposing Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn's face onto that of the rapper Stormzy, while the leader appears "to rap a list of policies" – as an example of viral social media content which helped Labour's standing in the 2017 general election (especially among the youth), but which was not directly funded by the party itself.[17]
