In a surprise reversal, IDG management removed Colin Crawford as PC World’s CEO and reinstated Harry McCracken as Editor in Chief, after a dispute over a canceled Apple story led McCracken to quit. A memo just sent to PC World and Macworld staffers by IDG president Bob Carrigan states that McCracken “has decided to remain with PC World.”
Harry did the right thing and it ended up paying him back big time. Just when PC Worlds integrity was on the hot seat, they demoted the biggest problem at hand. What a great result.
