Shelby Bonnie and other angels have put another
$2.5 million into Whiskey Media, which operates niche media sites such as
ComicVine (comics),
GiantBomb (gaming), and
AnimeVice (anime).
The company, which has been around since 2007, previously raised about $1.5 million in angel money as well
Whiskey Media's sites are wiki-like content sites in the vein of
CrunchBase or
GDGT, which built around structured databases which can be edited by the readers.
(In fact, CrunchBase was inspired by Whiskey Media's first site, now-retired
PoliticalBase)..
