NOW THAT'S A CEO
The New York Times
href="http://www.nytimes.com/2004/01/12/business/media/12CND-
MAG.html">reports today that Steven Florio will soon step down as
the head of Conde Nast Pulications and be replaced by the current COO
of Advance Magazine Group, Charles Townsend. AMG handles the back-
office publishing tasks for Conde Nast and a number of other magazines
under their parent company. Charles Townsend, of course, will be
conducting all his CEO business over a speakerphone and with the able
assistance of his office manager, Bosley. He will also utilize a

beauties to foil nefarious criminal plots, in addition to
publishing a wide variety of titles that include Vogue and
Vanity Fair. Graydon Carter, watch your back. [via
