LOL. What an irony.
Vanity Fair bases its whole year on the Oscar party. But their coverage today of Oscar nominations is limited by the one day Conde Nast strike by journalists. The union is protesting the huge layoffs at the company.
So what to do? VF put up a list of nominees without a byline. None of their film people will be writing about the Oscars all day on their website.
Vogue is in the same boat. Their list was put up by the British Vogue movies editor since no US staffer could do it.
The union’s Twitter account wrote:
“Over 400 of our members have walked off the job over @CondeNast’s unlawful handling of layoff negotiations and bad-faith bargaining. Instead of covering the #Oscars2024 nominations, we’ll be out at the picket line.”
