Penthouse gave their Editor-in-Chief, Mark Healy, six extra vacation days. After giving his notice earlier this week, Healy was escorted out of the Penthouse offices yesterday.

Healy will return to GQ, where he was previously a mid-level features editor and will now be director of editorial projects.

Healy’s tenure at Penthouse was part of a larger effort to class up the lad mag. Rumors has it that with Healy out, Penthouse will return to its smut roots. That business strategy should work out well since there’s such a glut of that stuff these days.
