While Morley Safer's profile was, in its totality, quite interesting, as its vexing and somewhat mystery-shrouded subject tends to be, what may be even more interesting is what the profile made didn't mention:

• Wintour's contract with Vogue is set to expire soon and that she and Conde Nast have a long history of using the media to gain advantages during tough contract negotiations.
• Longstanding rumors of S.I. Newhouse's desire to replace Wintour with French Vogue editor Carine Roitfeld.
• The overall decline in financial health over at Conde Nast, which recently reported a 26% drop in ad pages in its first quarter and shuttered Portfolio, its perpetually struggling $100 million business magazine.
  
  But to her credit, Wintour did look like 200,000 bucks.

60 Minutes said it wasn't ready to reveal next Sunday's story lineup just yet. But after this weekend, the news magazine goes into repeats for most of the summer. We first heard of it back in January and The Cut reported that CBS News cameras were following the fashion world's queen bee as far back as last November. Morley Safer was spotted sitting next to Wintour at New York's Fashion Week this past February.

First her documentary The September Issue premieres in January at Sundance (and is due in theaters in, duh, September) and now 60 Minutes — why is Anna suddenly so press friendly? Probably for exactly the same ones as why there was another sudden burst of rumors about Si Newhouse bringing in French Vogue editor Carine Roitfeld to New York to replace her: Anna's contract is up for renewal later this year. A burst of publicity can't hurt to build leverage — though unlike the September Issue, which was filmed during the boom days of 2007, when Vogue was thick with ads, the 60 Minutes piece is being filmed during the Great Magazine Die-Off when even Conde Nast is tightening its belts. Consider our DVR locked and loaded for Sunday.

Your lone fashion week outing, and some old guy spoils your chance to sit next to the editor of Vogue. Sorry, Serena. But at least the clothes at the Ralph Lauren show were totally worth it. (And, hey, maybe Safer's Wintour profile will give you a reason to start exploring this "news" programming you've heard so much about.)
