Vanity Fair's German Issue

Ow-ah. Six months after Vanity Fair was launched in Germany as a weekly magazine, Der Spiegel reports Condé Nast is running into major problems with Deutsche-Vanity Fair. A few of the highlights:

  • Condé Nast is spending €
    500,000 (US$670,000) weekly on the magazine, which is also suspected of exaggerating a sold print run of 120,000.


  • The usually mild-mannered Spiegel accuses Vanity Fair EIC Ulf Poschardt of “flamboyant arrogance” and his staff of “burn-out syndrome.”

  • A photo shoot in Dresden is a sign of the editors’ “desperate search for glamour.”
