They were acquired by Conde Nast but have since parted ways to go private: http://betabeat.com/2011/09/a-startup-is-reborn-reddit-no-lo...

That article says that they're still owned by Advance Publications, though (the Conde Nast parent).

I'm confused as well. Is Advance Publications retaining a stake? Are they spinning it off? ???
