O The Oprah Magazine doesn’t have a new editor in chief yet to succeed the departing Amy Gross, but whomever he or she is, they’ll have a brand new cover design handed to them. And yes, it still features Oprah. The June cover has the talk show queen pictured against a white background, with brightly colored cover lines. “The May issue marked the eighth anniversary of the magazine so June felt like a new beginning and the perfect time to make a few tweaks,” said a spokeswoman. She added that there will not be any major design changes inside the magazine.

In the age of Google, arriving unprepared for an interview is even harder to explain, but Christina Ricci was pretty graceful about George Gurley’s slipup when he interviewed her for BlackBook. When Gurley asked Ricci, “What’s it like being the face of Louis Vuitton?” the actress paused. Then she said, “Well, I’m not anymore. I was one of four actresses that they used in a campaign once and it was really fun. I liked it. I would like to be the face of Louis Vuitton. I am not, however. You know who is? Scarlett Johansson is the face of Louis Vuitton. Wrong interview.” The issue, with Ricci on the cover, hits this week.

Iwo Jima Vets Slam Time Cover, Dismiss Global Warming As "A Joke"

Iwo Jima veterans are outraged over Time magazine's decision to use the iconic World War II image of American soldiers hoisting a flag at Iwo Jima for the latest cover on "the war on global warming." The Business & Media Institute reports Iwo Jima veterans call the Time cover a "disgrace" and dismiss global warming as a "joke":

Donald Mates, an Iwo Jima veteran, told the Business & Media Institute on April 17 that using that photograph for that cause was a "disgrace."

"It's an absolute disgrace," Mates said. "Whoever did it is going to hell. That's a mortal sin. God forbid he runs into a Marine that was an Iwo Jima survivor."

Bon App’s Masthead Treatment a One-Time Deal

When Starbucks ran its unusual advertising masthead takeover in the May issue of Conde Nast’s Bon Appetit, many observers praised the title for its creativity, while other advertisers clamored to be next.

But a higher-up there has put the kibosh on future masthead treatments, company sources said. In an April 11 email to sales and marketing management, Rob Silverstone, senior vp, finance at Conde Nast, wrote that mastheads are considered editorial content and should not be used within advertisements.

Paul Jowdy, vp, publisher, said a repeat was never in the plans. “From the outset, it was created to be an exclusive, one-time run,” he wrote in an email.
