In the midst of all "Corinne Roitfeld is a better Anna Wintour than Anna Wintour" rumors (read our comprehensive coverage of the "Devil wears Prada" like drama here) team Wintour has struck back:
Page Six cited "industry sources" reporting that Vogue will be Condé's most profitable title in 2008, elbowing aside contenders like Glamour (does anyone really read Glamour anymore, btw?-ed). Implied message: Wintour is still the standard against whom all other editors are judged. Meta message: Wintour has her knife out, and will cut you.
Six was still able to find haters at Condé willing to whisper undermining quotes about Wintour — the same sorts of folks running around Waverly Inn and gossiping about Wintour's French Vogue replacement, or leaking retirement rumors to the Post — so it would seem she still has enemies trying to spread the message that she's toast. But now it looks like the Wintour camp is pushing back.
Maybe the reality-television-shunning editor has finally learned the surprising value of some well-publicized drama.
It ain't over till its over.
Catfight.
God loves a cheerful giver.
Team Wintour!
I read Glamour. Don't knock it, bitch. You want a catfight, you got it coming!
