(Reuters) - Rolling Stone's owner Jann Wenner has named William Schenck as the magazine's fourth publisher in two years just as the title prepares scale down its large-format pages to a standard magazine size, the New York Post said on Thursday.

Schenck had been publisher of Men's Journal, another magazine published by Wenner Media.

He replaces Ray Chelstowski, who the company said is leaving to pursue other opportunities, the report said.
