Vanity Fair’s editor Graydon Carter remembers a legend of the industry, S.I. Newhouse, Jr., who’s death puts an end to the most significant era of American and world-wide publishing. S.I. Newhouse Jr. has rocketed the Condé Nast from just another publishing house to what it is today and is a icon of anyone who enters the journalism profession of the last two centuries.
