Olivia Nuzzi Embarks on a New Journey with Vanity Fair After Exiting New York Magazine

Renowned for her work as a Washington correspondent at New York magazine, Olivia Nuzzi has embarked on a fresh chapter by joining Vanity Fair.

On Thursday, Vanity Fair unveiled its new roster of staff members, which included Nuzzi among 12 others, all of whom have had careers with prestigious publications such as Vogue, the Washington Post, and the Wall Street Journal.

In 2024, following scrutiny of her reporting, New York magazine, part of Vox Media, decided to suspend Nuzzi in September after it was revealed that she had formed a personal relationship with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. amid his presidential campaign.

An external legal review conducted by Davis Wright Tremaine concluded that there were no inaccuracies or biases in Nuzzi's reporting. However, New York magazine asserted that the relationship breached its standards on conflicts of interest, leading to a mutual departure.

Global editorial director of Vanity Fair, Mark Guiducci, expressed in an online statement, "The breadth of talent and capabilities on this list is vast. However, our new team members share a passion for Vanity Fair, a respect for its past, and an eagerness for what's ahead. They will each play a crucial role in our journey forward."

Efforts to obtain comments from Nuzzi, Vanity Fair, and New York magazine were unsuccessful at the time of reporting.
