I find it incomprehensible that writers like Hagan think we are so stupid! Honestly continually insulting our intelligence. Please have the respect to give us information and we will do a great job of deciding for ourselves. I can only hope & pray there will really come a time when our MSM will feel the weight of their utter emptiness...selling their souls for what exactly.

That day is coming Heidi. But you can expect to see a lot of heads explode in the process. If the past 4 years have taught me anything, it’s to be patient and be true to my principles. And also to recognize BS stench. People who have been conned into falling for it will be desperate for the truth and many will turn to those of us who weren’t. I’m seeing this happen all over the place.

Thank you for your perspective, Jeff. I too am experiencing the growing recognition of longstanding governmental and corporate corruption and control. The ripple effect of this recognition is rounding the planet. The manipulation to get injections, subsequent medical catastrophe, rise in all cause mortality, prevailing litigation, and the thrust of a few technocrats to control the climate, reduce the planet's population, and technologize our species has become undeniable. Relatives and friends who were denying the egregious agenda have grown to recognize this, admitting that they "made a mistake" in choosing to receive the injections. Though we have gone through the Looking Glass.....I have hope for restoration of a healthier species.

Take a look at the whole picture and how we humans are in relationship to nature. Has there ever been another species that actually plotted to harm others? What kind reward is it to gain when it causes pain and sorrow to so many? These are just some examples of the conflict that happen all the time but became magnified over the last four years. The psychopaths running the PsyOps are losing hold as more and more of us recognize that a life of honor, gratifying and empathy is the only way to go. See you along the way.

I read this piece when it came out and it struck me as being all about the writer, not Kennedy. Like a kid putting himself center stage at his neighbor's birthday party. How the writer's expectations weren't met, how he felt slighted, and so on. Count the times he uses the first person pronoun--exclusive of a Kennedy quote--before he concludes with the question of the day: "Did I like Robert F. Kennedy Jr.? No, I did not. He is a humorless bully living in a paranoid fantasy in which reporters like me are cast as corrupt dupes whose only redemption is to follow Robert F. Kennedy Jr. into this miasma of overheated conspiracies." So there. If you don't believe it, he's going to hold his breath and stamp his foot.

"Like a kid putting himself center stage at his neighbor's birthday party." Wish I'd said that.

And, this was her public statement when Radhika Jones succeeded Graydon Carter.

"There is nothing else out there quite like Vanity Fair. It doesn't just reflect our culture -- it drives our understanding of it. It can mix high and low, wit and gravitas, powerful narrative and irresistible photography. It has a legacy of influential reporting, unmatchable style and, above all, dedication to its readers. I am honored to succeed Graydon Carter as editor and excited to get to work."

Always remember Carter killed the Epstein story years before Jeffrey Epstein was first indicted.

There is no need to have high expectations for Vanity Fair.

This was the first Vanity Fair article I had ever read, and I am grateful to Mr Hagan as it will also be the last.

Thank you for writing this piece! It falls to all of us now, to continue to make clear the truth about the media that is doing a terrible disservice to us all.

How pathetic. Vanity Fair used to be a good read. Recently I was considering resubscribing but now would not consider it. I suppose this reporter thinks senile, corrupt old Joe with his aliases and shell companies is the best we can do. Maybe he can write a piece about all the great stuff Joe has to offer: he can almost read off a teleprompter, almost walk up flight of stairs…

As the writer noted, one wouldn’t expect anything other than a hit piece against RFK Jr just like you would not anticipate it about Donald Trump who they’ve now been working on gloriously for 8 years. That superiority complex is what their readers identify themselves with.

But you can’t really blame Hagan for this. He was obviously hired because the bosses of his elitist rag know he’s going to be an obedient soldier for their narrative and follow their talking points to the max. But you have to wonder sometimes how many of Vanity Fair’s reader are able to see through the shiny glossy pages and glamorous ads and realize that they are being cleverly brainwashed. If the viewpoint is so shallow that they actually believe this dribble, maybe they aren’t even worth the effort to try to sway it. I guess they’re going to have to wait until they realize that when Klaus Schwab said “You’ll own nothing and you’ll be happy”, he wasn’t peddling misinformation.

I’m automatically suspicious of those who do not get this kind of treatment by the MSM. I’d take this as a badge of honor and confirmation that he’s over the target(s)

I wouldn’t mind seeing RFK jr given some criticism from a real journalist such as Chris Hedges or Max Blumenthal, but it only sickens me to see or hear how Maintenance Phase and Vanity Fair have savagely maligned him. Thank you Frances for taking the time to assess this smear piece...I would feel more comfortable burning it.

Imperative to call this reporting profoundly dishonest. I suggest a picket line at corporate media as well. I'm a sixties guy and that's the kind of thing we used to do--confrontation politics, in their face stuff. Good start here, though. To paraphrase Marx, Satirists of the World Unite! You Have Nothing to Lose but your Cheneys!

The reason Vanity Fair is so boring is that everything is predictable. The so-called reporter just served up what was expected by the Harvard-educated editor. Hagen was expected to trash Kennedy, and he did his job splendidly like a trained seal. Nothing new, nothing interesting. Just the same people who think the public is still listening to them, and who actually feel Joe and Kamala are presidential material. Now that is crazy misinformation! Kennedy is extremely articulate, and his books are meticulously fact checked unlike Biden’s many documented lies which leave everyone questioning “Is it an actual bald-faced lie or is it senility?” That is the level of political commentary Biden brings to the table.

After reading that Vanity Fair article, I immediately dismissed it as a smear piece, however I really enjoyed the accompanying photography. The image Robert Kennedy Jr, sitting on the 'tailgate' of that station wagon with those photogenic dogs was especially endearing.
