Noah Shachtman Resigns as Rolling Stone Editor-in-Chief

Shachtman steps down due to editorial differences with CEO Gus Wenner, marking the end of his over two-year tenure.

Noah Shachtman, Rolling Stone's editor-in-chief, announced his resignation effective March 1, citing editorial differences with CEO Gus Wenner.
Shachtman's tenure saw significant achievements including a National Magazine Award, an Emmy nomination, and more than two billion views in the last year.
During his leadership, Rolling Stone expanded its coverage to include more politics-related stories and took a hard stance on controversial figures in music.
Shachtman will continue as a contributing writer for Rolling Stone and plans to work on a start-up project.
Rolling Stone faced controversy last year when co-founder Jann Wenner made remarks that led to his removal from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
