Richard Spencer Stays Put at AMI After Editorial Shake-up

James Heidenry named editor in chief of 'Star'

Following weeks of speculation about OK! and Reality Weekly editor in chief Richard Spencer’s future at American Media Inc., the company is implementing a series of editorial shifts that keep Spencer at AMI, albeit in a new post.

Spencer is leaving his daily duties at both titles while becoming editorial director of the newly created Celebrity Magazine Group, which includes OK!, Reality Weekly, Star and Soap Opera Digest, the company's remaining soaps weekly. Spencer reportedly is hoping to broaden Star’s editorial coverage and make the magazine more female-friendly.
