Mondo Times editors Boulder Colorado USA | Posted at 9:37am on Wednesday, January 13th, 2010 | Is It Vogue To Take the Subway to Work, Or Can I Keep My Limo?
The New York Post reported on January 13, 2010:
"Will Anna Wintour soon be taking the 1 train to work? Senior Vogue staffers are being told their private cars and cabs are being killed, and they have to take the subway. Sources said new publisher Susan "Cab-Killer" Plagemann is behind the move to make more of the magazine's designer-heeled brigade take mass transit. Our source said, "Senior people have been told they must take more subways to meetings as opposed to Town Cars to save money." Even associate publisher Lottie Oakley had to ride underground last week back to Vogue's Times Square offices, the source added. A Vogue rep refused to comment."
