Breaking News: Late last night Conde Nast illegally fired 4 union organizers who asked company execs to explain the downsizing of Teen Vogue and continued layoffs. We’ve filed a grievance.

A massive loss for Teen Vogue. Kaitlyn is a phenomenal editor + writer who always has sharp, thoughtful ideas and impeccable taste. TV Moment was her brain child! Hire her immediately!!!
I was laid off from Teen Vogue yesterday, along with 70% of my incredible team. @teenvogue.com

Thank you to everyone who has reached out. I am so grateful. For nearly 4yrs as Culture Editor, I was dedicated to humanizing and empowering young people. We move.❤️‍🩹🚀

Condé Nast doesn’t care about diversity. Full stop. Period. End of sentence.

With each of these layoffs and ultimatums, marginalized communities are impacted the most.

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting.

now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue this week, alongside multiple other phenomenal team members.

At our Summit, I was asked how it felt to be 1 of 2 Black women left and what that meant for representation. Now, there are no Black women at Teen Vogue and that is incredibly painful to think about.

"Slightly less covered is the wealth of Boricua history that makes his art as powerful as it is, including over 100 years of fraught Puerto Rico-U.S. relations that led to his arrival. This history is crucial for understanding the significance of where Bad Bunny stands now, & where he is going next"
Bad Bunny's Super Bowl Could Finally Spotlight Important Boricua History on the Mainland
Bad Bunny is perhaps the only pop star fully equipped to take on the current American sociopolitical ecosystem and the fact that a show must entertain.

Wrote about The Summer I Turned Pretty and why “filler episodes” are important to the landscape of a show www.teenvogue.com/story/the-su...
If You Don’t Like Filler Episodes, Maybe You Don’t Like the Show
'The Summer I Turned Pretty' fans have a tendency to call non-endgame moments "filler" — and it's killing the vibe.

Realllly loved the new netflix show Sirens + chatting with Meghann Fahy and Milly Alcock about monstrous women, coping mechanisms, and Milly running so much for the show that she lost a toenail

“I love that moment because it is so cringy and really funny, and then it immediately gets so sad.”

Say what you want about gnarly as a piece of art but an extremely polarizing song is possibly the best thing katseye could have done at this point in their career. Create an IYKYK energy, make the vibes weirder, encourage people who don’t listen to you to have an opinion…

big day on teen vogue dot com!!!
Vivian Wilson (@thevivllainous.bsky.social) is extremely online; unlike Elon Musk, her father, she’s really good at it. “Most of [the right] have the charisma of a soaking bathrobe. I mean, it's not my fault that most of them don't know how to be funny. It's not that hard.” ⤵️

Places to work quietly, conduct a sensitive interview, or even take a call or meeting are in increasingly short supply. If Condé management was really serious about “productivity,” we would already have the space we need to work.

What this is really about is control.

As of 3/3, @CondeNast is enforcing a 4-day Return To Office policy to enhance “productivity." This plan will have the opposite effect.

We have detail-oriented jobs that operate on tight deadlines. Condé sold office space during the pandemic, so most of us don’t have our own desks.

Op-Ed: Travis Kelce decided to reinforce the status quo by saying it will be an “honor” to have Donald Trump watch him play in the Super Bowl. But now is not the time to show respect to the office of the President of the United States as he does not seem to respect many of the citizens he governs. ⤵️
No Travis Kelce, It's Not an ‘Honor’ to Have Trump Watch You Play Football
Now is actually not the time to be respectful to the office of the President of the United States.

“It can all start to feel a bit hollow. Like we've taken beautiful things — reading books, watching movies, engaging with art and culture — and turned them into just more extensions of our personal brands. More content to consume and, crucially, share that we consumed.”
Despite ubiquitous reading challenges and stacked Letterboxd reviews, no one is monitoring how much you read or watch.

In this op-ed, culture director @kuhlaire.bsky.social explores the glut of reading challenges & obsessive Letterboxd movie tracking and what they say about how we engage with art.
