Plans for writer Rich Cohen’s authorized biography of legendary Rolling Stone founder Jann Wenner have come to a halt after Wenner mysteriously withdrew his support for the project, the New York Post’s Keith Kelly reports. Random House's Spiegel & Grau had verbally agreed a seven-figure deal for the book, according to a source. But the book was dropped when Wenner abruptly pulled out.
