Source Interlink Media, the parent company of Surfer, Surfing, Snowboarder, and Skateboarder magazine’s Action Sports Group is apparently doing to reorganization within the company.
Those reportedly no longer with the company include the former ASG President and SVP Group Publisher at Source Interlink Media Al Crolius and the director of Source Interlink Media Ken Lockwood.
Interim personnel are reportedly filling in during reorganization.
just say it, the dude got fired cause the ship is sinking right?
Maybe Shop-eat-sleep should do a follow up on their Source Interlink story:

“Al said Source Interlink’s bankruptcy is actually allowing the company to make more investment in the magazines. Because the company’s debt was lowered during the bankruptcy process, it has more money to invest in the business.
“The (bankruptcy) reorganization turned out to be a good thing,” he said”
Yeah Bankruptcy turned out to be a good thing…really Al?
Al got clipped because the the company felt like it needed to go in a different direction. They have brought in John Cobb formerley VP of digital for the source group to run the group. Sounds like they are headed in the right direction to me?
There’s nothing wrong with changing it up every now and then. There’s some great, genuine people over there. That’s the real nuts & bolts of the machine.
The “wing nuts” were bound to get stripped sooner or later…
