Titan Sports Media Group was initially founded in 1988 [3] in Changsha, Hunan province as Titan Sports .

[4] The magazines published by Titan Sports Media Group include Football Weekly , All Sports , Slam , Outside , Golf Digest , Runner's , Auto Bild , Women's Health and MiLK .

In April 2009, Qu Youyuan, the chief editor and part owner of the Titan Media Group, along with a deputy involved in accounting, were taken from their Beijing office and detained by Communist Party disciplinary authorities in Hunan.
