The San Francisco Standard, a digital news outlet funded by billionaire venture capitalist Michael Moritz, has acquired Charter, an online publication that covers the future of work and leadership. The deal, announced on 30 June 2025, marks The Standard’s first acquisition since Moritz bought the San-Francisco-focused site in 2021 and underscores his broader push into local and thematic journalism. Charter co-founder Kevin Delaney, a former Wall Street Journal editor and Quartz co-founder, will become editor-in-chief of both The Standard and Charter. Charter’s staff will be integrated into The Standard, expanding its coverage of workplace trends, artificial intelligence and management issues. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
