Over the weekend there were some hard-hitting reports in the media about how Kamala Harris and her team are not happy with Vogue Magazine’s photo choice for a cover story on the VP-Elect:
Some fashion magazine news….
1. The February Vogue cover featuring VP-elect Kamala Harris has been widely criticized on social media this evening
But according to a source familiar with the publication plans, this is not the cover that the Vice President-elect's team expected pic.twitter.com/lBC9DnfYNC

2. In the cover that they expected, Vice President-elect Harris was wearing a powder blue suit. That was the cover that the Vice President-elect's team and the Vogue team, including Anna Wintour, mutually agreed upon…which is standard for fashion magazines.

3. To be clear, this Vogue cover of Vice President-elect Kamala Harris is real.
It's just that per a source familiar, this is not the cover that was mutually agreed upon. The agreed upon cover had VP-elect Harris in a powder blue suit.
So folks feel blindsided this evening. pic.twitter.com/PRhTBpXzxm

4. Here is the Vogue cover Kamala Harris’ team thought would be released.
I’m told this cover on the left will be the digital cover, but the much maligned cover on the right has already gone to print and will be the cover available for sale and sent to subscribers. pic.twitter.com/5eWjPMTbdP

But that “controversy” spilled over into the beginning of this week, with CBS This Morning having an in-depth conversation about Team Harris’ complaints, and questions from others that have been made about Vogue’s motivation:

Democrats and a segment of the media are already eating themselves alive? No way!
It's a "Controversy" that Vogue ran a complimentary photo that Harris posed for? https://t.co/fQPBbnPrZl

It’s a “controversy” compared to the tongue bath the Biden administration will receive from the media.
DNC mouthpiece was a "little racist"? Talk about ingratitude to your apple-polishers. https://t.co/vq0c8RcoC6

The media are being reminded right off the bat to never stray from the demands of the incoming administration or the DNC. Violators will be singled out and ostracized!
