XXL has fired editor-in-chief (and Ego Trip founder) Elliott Wilson, apparently because XXL owner Harris Publications "wants the magazine to go in a different direction in terms of expanding its scope." [AllHipHop]
so Harris wants to turn XXL into Vibe? That's weird, considering his wife runs that, and XXL consistently beat Vibe's numbers under Elliott's watch.
I'm guessing Elliott just got to be too expensive & maybe a little too arrogant for the tightwads @ Harris-Pub. Dude built XXL in an industry leader from almost nothing; he'll have plenty of offers coming his way in '08.
