Updated Body Count from the BNP/Stagnito Fallout
The unsolicited body counts keep on coming in. The fresh news is that two more top editors have left BNP’s new baby, Stagnito, one a senior editor from Confectioner Magazine.
Out of the 100 employees that were part of Stagnito when the acquisition was made, the seven Stagnitos (it was a family run business), three editors, two marketers, Mary Mazur, Sue Ranvenscraft, and one more person from the circ department. Of the two people left in the circ department, one is “looking,” according to my sources, and the other is “about one year from retirement.” My sources also indicate that the HR person and is looking as is the head of marketing.
And the mood: “I talked to another editor the other day and he is just staying quietly in the background, he is afraid to make waves, as he need the job until he finds another,” says one source.

The It manager also left.
Incorrect. The IT manager has not left.
yes, he left In Oct after he was demoted to a help desk specialist
The last of the old Stagnito management has been shown the door.
Pete Giannakopoulos, senior group publisher, was told that he was no longer needed about a month ago.
Yesterday (4/23/08) Ned Bardic, another senior group publisher, worked his last day.
Pete and Ned were the last two from the Stagnito senior management team. So much for BNP keeping in tact the team that made Stagnito a success.
