SourceFed was a YouTube channel and news website created by Philip DeFranco in January 2012 as part of YouTube's $100 million original channel initiative, and was originally produced by James Haffner. SourceFed mainly focused on popular culture, news and technology. SourceFed was a part of DeFranco's portfolio of Internet-based media properties, including his own eponymous news YouTube series. That portfolio was named DeFranco Creative and later renamed SourceFed Studios when acquired by Discovery Communications' Revision3. On March 20, 2017, the cancellation of SourceFed, along with its SourceFed Nerd and People Be Like spinoffs, was announced. The closure of the SourceFed Studios network was decided by the newly formed Group Nine Media, led by Discovery Communications, which was formed as a merger between SourceFed Studios and four other networks in October 2016. The final SourceFed video was a farewell live-stream broadcast on March 24, 2017.
