Vanity Fair Causes Stock Market Crash Of ‘07

March 30th, 2007

Remember about a month ago when the stock market dropped wildly for no apparent reason (Ka-DOW!) and everyone started blaming the hat-headed Matt Drudge? Yeah, turns out that theory was completely ridiculous. It was all Vanity Fair’s fault!

Whenever Vanity Fair breaks a record for ad pages, the stock market crashes immediately afterward, according to a highly scientific study by “Short Takes.” Consider: VF’s March 2007 Hollywood edition (”Our Biggest Issue Ever!”) clocked in at 500 pages. During the week of Feb 26, 2007, the Dow Jones Industrial Average collapsed, from 12,647 to 12,114.

And there you have it. Blame Graydon. Because you want to. And because he’s the next Anna Wintour in training, but he’s been manipulating the stock market like his name was Jim Cramer.
