The American Bazaar
U.S. South Asian community press, center
Background
The American Bazaar was founded in 2012 by Sujeet Rajan with the goal of creating a dedicated news platform for Indian and South Asian Americans. It is published by Global Media Holding, Inc., based in Germantown, Maryland, a company that also owns Global India Newswire (which distributes India-related text and television content) and Highlands Productions (a television production company). The outlet has remained a small operation, typically with fewer than ten staff members and contributors spread across the United States. It has not taken outside investment, relying instead on display advertising and sponsorships generated through its events arm, AB Events, which hosts startup and entrepreneurship gatherings nationally. Editorially, the publication focuses on issues that directly affect its South Asian American readership: H-1B and F-1 visa policy, immigration enforcement, U.S.-India relations, and technology industry trends. Third-party bias analysis by Biasly rates the outlet near the center of the political spectrum with average reliability. The outlet has no major documented editorial controversies; its perspective is shaped less by partisan ideology than by the interests and concerns of the immigrant professional community it serves.
