Vanity Fair Scraps 'Green' Issue



"Vanity Fair remains committed to covering the environment, and we’ll spread our coverage throughout the year, instead of relegating the bulk of it to a specific issue," a company spokeswoman said. "With so much else going on relating to the global financial crisis, we have been focusing on that of late."




After three years of publishing its May "green" issue, complete with celebrities like Julia Roberts, Madonna and Leonardo DeCaprio, the monthly magazine decided to do away with the earth-friendly theme.

The global financial crisis has such issues down the international priority list, and environmentalists are worried, but parent company Condé Nast says that’s not true. In fact, it’s more because the rest of the media has finally started paying attention to the topic on which Vanity Fair doesn’t need to dedicate an entire issue.
