MIN FEATURE PERSON

David Kang Named Wenner Media Chief Digital Officer


Thursday, January 12, 2012 On Wednesday (Jan. 11), Wenner Media chief operating officer John Gruber announced the hire of David Kang as the company's second chief digital officer. Kang's experience comes from stints at Hearst Magazines, where as creative director of content extensions he helped turn Cosmopolitan and Good Housekeeping into multiplatform, multibrand content franchises (digital apps, mobile sites, social media, e-books, etc.).  And at Rodale.com, where as senior VP/general manager he developed digital brand extensions for the Flat Belly Diet and Eat This, Not That! best-sellers.

Kang joins Wenner at a time of impressive digital growth with cumulative unique visitors to the Rolling Stone/Us Weekly/Men's Journal  Web sites +54% for all of 2011 versus 2010 (per comScore). Some of that happened under the direction of predecessor Michael Bloom, whose six-month stint ended in November.

Kang will start on Jan. 20.
