Dr. Oz Magazine Loses Lead Designer Ahead of Launch

Title set to hit newsstands next week

Hearst’s newest magazine, Dr. Oz The Good Life, hasn’t put out its first issue, but it's already lost a key member of the launch team.

Cass Spencer, the design director, was let go Thursday, a few days ahead of the launch. Spencer, who lists work from another Hearst title, Cosmo for Latinas, as well as Rodale’s Prevention on his website, declined to go into specifics about his departure. A spokesperson for the magazine confirmed his edit, saying only by way of explanation, "When magazines are in start-up mode, changes occur."
