...rather than bucks. She's the one who put the glitz into Vanity Fair and the news into the New Yorker. When an editor who's won an astonishing 14 National Magazine Awards decides to cook from scratch, expectations fly over the moon. Part of it was her own fault, teaming up as she did with financial backers Harvey and Bob Weinstein of Disney's Miramax studios and proclaiming that her brainchild would be a "cultural search engine" that would spin off News!
