Noguera Announced As New FHM Editor-In-Chief

Anthony Noguera, editor-in-chief of Emap’s Arena, Arena Homme Plus and Zoo, has been announced as the new editor-in-chief of FHM, replacing Ross Brown with immediate effect.

Brown has left the magazine after 10 years as editor, with Emap saying he is to “pursue other opportunities”.

Noguera will have day-to-day responsibility for FHM‘s editorial activities across print, mobile and online.

Ben Todd will now edit Zoo, having joined as deputy editor just over a month ago.

Some in the trade press have predicted that FHM could record a fall in circulation of over 20% in the July to December 2006 ABCs, available on NewsLine on Thursday.

At the last ABC’s, FHM shed around 139,500 in sales, leaving it with a total circulation of 420,688. However, it remained the most widely purchased magazine in the sector (see ABC Results Jan-Jun 2006:Men’s Magazines Suffer Declining Circulations).
