PETA Goes After Vogue and Anna Wintour

PETA’s new pet peeve is Vogue editor Anna Wintour. Wintour has been the butt of many jabs and jokes lately. You can see them all over at Gawker. A staffer even wrote a book about her apparently, horrid, nature. Now PETA, the animal rights group, is going after her with a poster campaign claiming she extoles the virtues of fur in Vougue which is a no-no for PETA.

On June 2, the posters will be placed around New York City and handouts will be distributed outside Conde Naste headquarters with her direct telephone line and email address. Additionally, PETA will ask supporters to flood Vogue’s phone lines on the ad closing date of an upcoming issues just to piss her off even more. [via New York Magazine]

I’m 73 and I made the mistake of telling my daughter I was lonely and she immediately started researching senior centers and activity groups and volunteer opportunities — and what I wanted to say was I don’t need a schedule, I need someone to sit with me on a Tuesday and not try to fix the fact that I’m sad
