Tina Brown Launches Web- and iPhone-Only Site

Tina Brown, the former editor of Tatler, Vanity Fair, the New Yorker and the short-lived Talk, launched a trial version of a Web and iPhone-only site called The Daily Beast, funded by Barry Diller’s IAC new media empire on Monday, according to the Financial Times.
