 PROFILE
Wenner Media gathers no moss. More than three decades after its first issue, the publisher's flagship magazine "Rolling Stone" remains an icon of pop culture. Wenner Media also publishes "Men's Journal," featuring stories of high adventure in the great outdoors. The company also has launched RollingStone.com, an online music resource center, in conjunction with EMusic.com. US Weekly LLC (a joint venture with The Walt Disney Company) publishes "US Weekly" magazine, featuring entertainment news and celebrity interviews. All of this reflects the tastes of the man in charge -- chairman, editor in chief, and publisher Jann Wenner, who started Rolling Stone in 1967.
