Former Condé Nast Editor Plans a Vanity Fair for the Substack Era

▤ Summary

A former editor at Vanity Fair has been working for several years to create a digital publication with a business twist: Its writers will share in subscription revenue. Think of it as Vanity Fair meets Substack, the subscription newsletter platform that has attracted big-name authors. The new company behind the publication, Heat Media, hopes to unveil it in the coming months, four people with knowledge of the matter said. An annual subscription would cost $100 and could include a daily newsletter, a website and access to events, the people said. One under consideration is Puck, the name of an American humor magazine of the late 1800s and early 1900s.
