Evie Magazine is a politically conservative American women's magazine.[1][2] It was founded in February 2019 by husband and wife Gabriel Hugoboom and Brittany Martinez,[a] with Martinez as editor-in-chief.[3][1] According to Vice, the website has spread COVID-19 misinformation and vaccine misinformation presented as part of a traditionalist and antifeminist worldview.[1] Rolling Stone has described it as a combination of straightforward trend pieces and listicles which are typical of other women's magazines mixed with right-wing culture war articles opposing abortion rights, opposing LGBTQ rights, and promoting conspiracy theories.[2]
