... about Rolling Stone (from today's Washington Post):
These days, Wenner is the kingpin of a publishing empire whose worth was estimated recently by the Wall Street Journal at between $600 million and $900 million. The counterculture icon who once inspired gossip about sex and dope now inspires gossip about . . . neatness. Scurrilous rumors allege that he periodically conducts inspections to make sure employees' desks aren't messy.
"True!" Wenner says. "I believe that a neat office is a good workplace and a neat desk reflects an orderly mind. So we clean the office up every year and everybody's required to go throw out all their old stuff. And the place looks great."
