Peste Magazine[edit]
Peste Magazine is a magazine of health journalism, advocacy, and the arts founded by Jason Silverstein and Jon Shaffer in August 2022. The magazine promotes itself as "aggressive, adversarial, iconoclastic"[1] and features reported pieces, commentaries, blogs, and poetry. Silverstein, in his editor-in-chief's introductory letter, defined the target audience as "the new generation of young people who believe every preventable death is a terrible failure we should not get over but instead avenge with righteous anger."[2]
