Wendy Williams, Dave Mays and Benzino Starting "The Truth" Magazine



Normally if I see those names together, I expect the topic is "three names least likely to appear next to the word 'truth'" ..But in this case I'd be mistaken:

Wendy Williams, Dave Mays and Benzino Starting "The Truth" Magazine

You can't keep a thuggish, bankruptcy-prone, Harvard-educated hip-hop mogul down. Six months after being forced out of The Source, Dave Mays is set to return to magazine publishing with a new title that's being described as an urban version of In Touch. Joining him in the effort are failed 38-year-old MC Ray "Benzino" Scott, his partner at The Source; surgically-enhanced radio yapper Wendy Williams; and Mimi Valdes, the former Vibe editor in chief who was canned, along with most of her staff, after BlackBook owner Ari Horowitz bought that title in July.
Valdes will edit the mag, which is tentatively called The Truth.
