President-elect Donald Trump met this week with Vanity Fair and Vogue editors and things went well, a new report claims.
On Friday, Vanity Fair magazine’s long time editor Graydon Carter, the editor-in-chief for Vogue magazine Anna Wintour, and other journalists met with the president-elect in an off-the-record meeting with the publication company Condé Nast, the New York Post’s Page Six reported.

“The meeting was serious and respectful,” a source close to the meeting told the outlet. “There was no discussion about negative name-calling from the past. At the end, the president-elect and Graydon Carter shook hands.”
Reportedly the editors spoke to Trump on a variety of topics including climate change, abortion, and issues regarding Russia and Vladimir Putin.
After the election Trump called Vanity Fair “dead” and mentioned their “really low numbers,” while naming Carter on Twitter.
“Has anyone looked at the really poor numbers of @VanityFair Magazine. Way down, big trouble, dead! Graydon Carter, no talent, will be out,” Trump tweeted.

Carter in a past article had labeled Trump “a short-fingered vulgarian.”
