Vanity Fair plans to phase out its business and technology section called The Hive in a move by new editorial director Mark Guiducci, reports Todd Spangler of Variety.
Spangler reports, “The move will include shutting down vertical sections of the VF website. That will include phasing out The Hive, which has focused on business, politics and technology. The pub launched The Hive in 2016 as its first mobile-focused site.
“‘We will no longer think of something as a ‘Hive post’ or a ‘HWD post,’’ Guiducci wrote, referring to Vanity Fair’s Hollywood Daily vertical. ‘We will treat each story as a Vanity Fair story.’
“Vanity Fair is hiring 13 new staffers under Guiducci’s leadership, including three new correspondents who will focus on Hollywood, Washington and style.”
