Over the years, many who read the news in the USA were surprised to find a magazine, ostensibly for teenagers, became one of the last bastions of mainstream press resistance.

A holdout from the earlier purges at other organizations, it was silenced this week.

I find this noteworthy USA news because it helps chronicle the ongoing collapse of the commercial press in the country.

Teen Vogue has now been folded into Vogue, and all politics reporters, all Black women and all trans people working there were fired on Monday (11/3/25) morning.

That is, none of the people who made Teen Vogue a surprisingly effective civics communication vehicle remain with the magazine.

Can only assume WIRED is next, those bastards.

Wired, employer of journalist Kevin Poulsin, who published Adrian Lamo's chat logs with Chelsea Manning, human rights activist, which resulted in her incarceration and psychological torture.

That is awful yes but more the action of the government, they are no doubt without criticism, they definitely glazed the FAANG gang wayyyyyyy too much, but recent articles have been pretty decent. I suppose I have fond memories of the early days and from mondo2000 but... that was another time lol.

I wonder how Ms. Manning came to be arrested. 🤔

I guess it was the WIRED POLICE.

That’s some dog shit. Gotta figure out how to cancel my subscription now, I’d set it up back in 2016 when they were out there killing it with good reporting.

Yes. I won't get near a print or electronic edition of Vogue, but enjoyed quite a few Teen Vogue articles.
