Rolling Stone owner Wenner Media makes more staffing cuts
By Andy Malt | Published on Thursday 18 June 2015
American magazine publisher Wenner Media has made a number of staffing cuts across its Rolling Stone, Us Weekly and Men’s Journal titles, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Among the cuts, Rolling Stone’s David Fricke has apparently been taken off contract and will now contribute on a freelance basis. However, Managing Editor Will Dana was keen to stress that Fricke is not leaving the magazine, tweeting last night: “To be clear: David Fricke isn’t leaving Rolling Stone. He’s still a Senior Writer and he’ll be in the magazine and on the site as much as ever”.
Other cuts affect both editorial and commercial roles across the group, says THR.
