******* Meredith Corporation (NYSE:MDP) announced today that it has named Denise Brodey as Editor-in-Chief of Fitness magazine. Brodey, you'll recall, was hired away from rival Shape in May by Meredith, but was placed at More for three months until a non-compete clause in her contract cleared. MORE ONLINE
2. WWD SPOTTING THE FAKE: The man who has been impersonating Jane fashion director Kusum Lynn and various other Cond? Nast employees has been found! Or, at least a photo of him has been located on the Web. WWD was alerted to an image on Patrickmcmullan.com on Friday by someone who has had multiple run-ins "with the little creep." The picture shows a short-in-stature, dark-skinned man identified as "Prianta Silva," posing with a blonde woman captioned "Christina Wiltsee." "He's very crafty," said the source. "He'll use an e-mail that ends in condenastonline.com, so he must have registered that domain. He's also been claiming to be a producer from ‘Crash.' There's a real company called Red Wagon Entertainment, and he often says he's from Red Wagon Films." MORE ONLINE CARGO MISSING: It's like the magazine never even existed. The Manhattan Sailing School in North Cove Marina, which is sponsored by Cond? Nast, parent of WWD, is adding more boats to its fleet. Each boat at the Sailing School flies the flag of a magazine in the Cond? Nast stable, and during weekly regattas, the boats race against each other, pitting Vanity Fair against, say, Bon Appetit. But one flag that flew above a boat last year disappeared this season. "I am not sure what happened to the Cargo flag," said the harbor's commodore, Michael Fortenbaugh. "At end of every season, flags are looking a bit worn, so it is important that we dispose of them and only fly bright new flags every spring." MORE ONLINE
3. The Guardian Now in its sixth year, the MediaGuardian 100 is our annual guide to the most powerful people in the industry. Candidates are judged on three criteria - their cultural, economic and political influence in the UK. A year after the general election, cultural and economic power dominated the debate. This year's list was made up from all sectors of the media, including broadcasting, publishing, new media, advertising, marketing and PR. Our ambition is to take a snapshot of the individuals who run or influence the UK media in 2006, a reflection of what they have done over the last 12 months - and what they are likely to achieve over the course of the next year. There are 31 new entries in this year's list. For the statisticians among you, 33 people went up, 31 went down, and five retained the same ranking as last year. A note on salaries - they are taken from the latest available official sources such as company annual reports. Where salaries are not publicly available, we have not included them. Wealth figures are from the Sunday Times Rich List. It's all change once again in the MediaGuardian 100. MORE ONLINE
4. Jossip With all that's not going on at Rolling Stone (minus that minuscule reality TV thing) we almost forgot that Jann Wenner is planning to start a little family with his boyfriend Matt Nye. We didn't realize it had been that long since these rumors emerged, but apparently this super baby will be welcomed into the world come late August. And who's the baby mamma? Luckily (since she was pumped up with sperm from both daddies), it's not Matt's sister. Other than that, all we know is that she's some lady in California. MORE ONLINE
5. Reuters You could call it the curse of The Devil Wears Prada. While the hit movie about a fashion editor from hell showcases dozens of high-end and mainstream brands, the sweet smell of success isn't rubbing off on Wall Street. The share prices of brands that got placement in the movie have almost all slumped more than the wider stock market in recent weeks -- possibly reflecting a new caution about discretionary spending among American shoppers.

6. TBO.com Working behind the scenes, a 61-year-old albino has shaped much of ESPN's creative vision for the past two decades. John Walsh, former managing editor of both Rolling Stone and U.S.News & World Report, has never lost his passion for provocative sports journalism. Want to impress ESPN's executive editor? Bring Walsh a fresh idea and he will consider its merits in the marketplace. Any novel approach invigorates Walsh, who paved a new direction for "SportsCenter" and has been instrumental in the launch of ESPN The Magazine, ESPN Radio and ESPN.com. MORE ONLINE
