About Us
Fascinating World Media (FWM) was founded in 2022 by Krishna Rathuryan, sharing articles, videos, and other media on various educational topics. Our goal is to educate our audience on complex topics in a straightforward manner.
FWM was scaled to a following of over 200,000 across social media, reaching more than 110,000,000 viewers, and saw upwards of 15,000 monthly readers. With a team of ten writers and a commitment to accuracy, FWM was able to be rated as “highly credible” by the Media Bias/Fact Check (MBFC) organization. Over the years, we have had applications and guest articles from those who have written for Science Alert, AOL, Cracked, Scientific American, ListVerse, The Modern Rogue, Parents Magazine, The Progressive, and Durham University's Polyphony, among many other publications.
FWM’s assets were subsequently acquired by two independent buyers as part of a split asset sale in 2026. Following the acquisition and under new leadership, FWM continues to be in successful operation at a smaller scale.
Online Presence
You can easily find us on TikTok, Medium, YouTube, and of course, on this website (www.fascinatingworld.org)! Please note that the FWM brand no longer maintains its social media presence or audience on X/Twitter and Reddit.
