Sucks to be you.

Teen Vogue staffers forced the liberal magazine’s incoming 
editor to walk away from the gig because they were offended by 
things she tweeted as a teenager, but the same employees didn’t 
seem bothered by sponsored content from the Saudi Arabian 
government.

Alexi McCammond's tenure as editor-in-chief of Teen Vogue ended 
before it began on Thursday when she parted ways with the outlet 
after an internal uproar over decade-old tweets, for which she 
previously apologized in 2019. Staffers at the Condé Nast 
publication were furious over the tweets, while critics labeled 
the debacle the latest example of cancel culture.

TEEN VOGUE EDITOR BECOMES LATEST CANCEL CULTURE VICTIM AFTER 
STAFFERS' REVOLT OVER DECADE-OLD TWEETS

However, earlier this month Teen Vogue published sponsored 
content from the Saudi Arabian government, promoting it as a fun 
holiday destination where "citizens and visitors alike can have 
peace of mind." The piece titled, "Why Saudi Should Land on 
Every Culture Lover’s Radar," fawned over the nation that 
doesn’t particularly align with Teen Vogue’s values.

Under current law, Saudi women require a male guardian’s 
approval to marry, be released from prison, or obtain certain 
sexual and reproductive health care. Also, men can still file 
cases against their daughters, wives, or female relatives for 
"disobedience," which can lead to their forcible return to their 
male guardian’s home or imprisonment.

Women are often told they belong in the home in Saudi Arabia, 
and they make up just 16 percent of the workforce, according to 
World Bank.

TheWrap, a Hollywood trade publication, reported that Teen Vogue 
chalked the sponsored content up to an "error" and removed it 
from the liberal website. Teen Vogue featured the pro-Saudi 
content on its homepage before it was removed, TheWrap reported, 
citing "an individual with knowledge of the matter."

Journalist Josh Barro captured Teen Vogue’s homepage before the 
article was removed.


The story remains up on Teen Vogue’s sister publication, fellow 
Condé Nast magazine Traveler.

MEDIA MEMBERS OUTRAGED AFTER CANCEL CULTURE COMES FOR ALEXI 
MCCAMMOND: 'WHERE THE HELL ARE WE AS AN INDUSTRY'

The propaganda disguised as an article appeared less than two 
weeks after U.S. intelligence agencies released a report 
concluding that Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince approved the 
operation to "capture or kill" Washington Post journalist Jamal 
Khashoggi in 2018.

However, there didn’t appear to be any public outcry from the 
Teen Vogue staffers who forced out McCammond over tweets she 
sent as a teenager, which included hoping she didn't wake up 
with "Asian" eyes and using the term "homo."

It's been a dramatic year for the young journalist, who also saw 
her relationship with former Biden White House communications 
staffer T.J. Ducklo go public. McCammond continued to cover 
President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris for Axios, in 
spite of disclosing her romance with Ducklo to the outlet.

Daily Caller reporter Shelby Talcott appeared baffled by the 
selective outrage.

"Just so I’m clear: Teen Vogue staff had no issue w/ propaganda 
from Saudi Arabia that appeared in 'error' on the homepage & 
there was no outcry over McCammond’s relationship w/ an official 
on the campaign she covered. This is over tweets from HS that 
she apologized for," Talcott tweeted. "Got it."

Condé Nast did not immediately respond to a series of questions, 
including whether staffers objected to the paid content 
internally and why it is still allowed on Traveler if its sister 
magazine published it accidentally.
