Vanity Fair is an American monthly magazine of popular culture, fashion, and current affairs published by the corporate media conglomerate Condé Nast.
Notable Exposes
In 2005, Vanity Fair published an expose about Dennis Hastert which gave a wider audience to the claims of Sibel Edmonds, cross checked with other whistleblowers.
An article in the May 2005 edition revealed the identity of 'Deep Throat' as W. Mark Felt.[1]
Hit pieces
A 2024 hit piece suggested RFK Jr. ate a Korean dog in 2010, "the same year he was diagnosed with a dead tapeworm in his brain."[2] Vanity Fair did not bother to consult an anatomist for the article, which would have clarified the issue. RFK Jr. pointed out that the animal in the picture was clearly a goat.[3]
In a 2006 hit piece, Vanity Fair referred to Dylan Avery's Loose Change about 911 as "the first Internet blockbuster".[4]
Covid
In October 2022, Vanity Fair was the conduit for a official opposition narrative story about the "lab leak of a virus" out of a laboratory in Wuhan, China being the origin of a "Covid pandemic".[5][6]
