The GQ succession race

Have they no decency? Quicker than Art Cooper's tears can dry, the media commentators are handicapping the race to succeed him as editor of GQ. Keith Kelly is offering odds.
· Dylan Jones, editor-in-chief of British GQ: 2-to-1 favorite
· David Zinczenko of Men's Health, although he's taken himself out of the running: 5-to-1
· Michael Hirschorn, past editor of Spin: 10-to-1
· Kurt Andersen, resting at public radio: 35-to-1
· David Kamp, a VF editor: 35-to-1
· Maer Roshan, if Radar doesn't fix: 50-to-1
· Glenda Bailey of Harpers, because SALTYT thinks it's time a lad's mag had a woman editor.

Glenda Bailey and Bazaar

Harper's Bazaar Editor Glenda Bailey's head may not be on the chopping block just yet. Newsstand sales for the second half of 2002 were up. Subscriptions, however were down 2%. A Hearst spokeswoman dubiously insists that the drop occurred because they're managing circulation and "the dip was by design." (Elsewhere in Manhattan, AOL execs are slapping their palms against their foreheads and saying, "Why didn't we think of that?")
