07_graydonmonkey_lg File this in the party, chit chat, rumor mill, category. According to a source, a Conde Nast editor at the Valentino fete the other night was telling party goers that Vanity Fair editor Graydon Carter — who has apparently returned from his trip to Bermuda — is offering laid-off Vanity Fair staffers jobs at his Monkey Bar restaurant. Um, a way to cushion the blow? They are always packed. If you happen have been on the receiving end of such an offer we’d love to hear from you: tips@mediaite.com

Hmm. Notice something missing? A close look reveals most major media outlets have neglected to mention that today is the 7th anniversary of the Iraq War. Not a single major op-ed to be found. Nor a trending Twitter hashtag. It's almost as though where the media is concerned the Iraq War didn't happen.

No word on what inspired the timing of this piece; maybe the Times got tired of reporting on the Obamas proper? Which is not to say it's not interesting. It is! Court intrigue as only the NYT can provide it (how else would we know President Obama offered Chelsea a White House wedding?).
