A Waste of Time

Twenty or so years ago I subscribed to Vanity Fair. True, it had a fair amount of fashion articles, but it also had a couple of substantive articles in each issue. However, things changed and I ceased my subscription. About a month ago I got an e-mail from them offering a deal for five issues; I took it. I got my first copy yesterday and the magazine has become a fashion magazine exclusively. Just about every article has a photograph(s) of the subject(s) of the article. Each photograph includes a description of what the subjects are wearing. It still has more pages of advertisements than articles, but the articles have no substance other than fashion. My next four issues will go right to my waste basket.
