Ziff Davis Names Weedfald President

Troubled technology and video game magazine publisher Ziff Davis Media named Peter Weedfald as president, a new position, as it strives to emerge from bankruptcy by June.

Weedfald most recently was senior vp, chief marketing officer for Circuit City. He also is a vet of Ziff Davis, having spent nine years there in the 1980s, in various senior sales and executive positions at PC Magazine and other titles.

Ziff Davis has had a rough ride since being acquired by Willis Stein & Partners in 2000 for $780 million.
