Anna Wintour steps down as US Vogue editor after nearly 40 years
NEW YORK: Magazine legend Anna Wintour stepped down as editor of US Vogue on Thursday after 37 years during which she was often hailed as the single most influential figure in the fashion world. Wintour, 75, was famous for making Vogue's front covers an authoritative statement on contemporary fashion, and for her total control over the glamorous pages inside. She will no longer run day-to-day editing of the fashion bible, but magazine group owner Conde Nast was quick to scotch suggestions that she was retiring. She will continue to hold senior roles at the group and remain Vogue's global editorial director, a company source said. British-born Wintour came to wider public renown as the inspiration for 'The Devil Wears Prada,' a hit 2003 novel and 2006 movie, for which Meryl Streep earned an Oscar nomination for her role as tyrannical magazine editor Miranda Priestly. Wintour announced at a staff meeting in New York that the monthly publication would seek a new head of editorial content, several US media reported. Fashion flagship She was made a British dame in 2017 and in February this year became a companion of honour, joining a select group never numbering more than 65 recognized for major contributions in their field. At the ceremony in London in February, Wintour removed her trademark sunglasses to receive the award and said she had told King Charles III that she had no plans to stop working. Wintour, who was raised in the UK by a British father and an American mother, reigned over Vogue in the heyday of glossy magazines. US Vogue was a staid title when she took it over in 1988 and transformed it into a powerhouse that set trends – and make or break designers, celebrities and brands. She took the title to a global audience, with huge budgets to spend on models, design, photographs and journalism funded by lavish advertisements and high subscription rates. Vogue remains fashion's flagship magazine but, like many print publications, has struggled to adapt to the digital era. Wintour was known for decisive leadership, such as axing work without discussion, and as a fixture in the front row at catwalk shows with her unchanging bob haircut. A 2015 documentary 'The September Issue' about the magazine pointed to her ice queen image and steely ambition but also revealed a warmer human side. Wintour has for many years also run the Met Gala, an extravagant Manhattan fundraiser that attracts an A-list of dressed-up stars from the worlds of fashion, film, politics and sports. As Conde Nast's chief content officer, she will continue to oversee publications including Vogue, Wired, Vanity Fair, GQ, Conde Nast Traveler and Glamour. For many years, Wintour declined to comment on 'The Devil Wears Prada,' which was written by one of Wintour's former assistants, Lauren Weisberger. But when it was turned into a musical and opened in London in 2024, she told the BBC that it was 'for the audience and for the people I work with to decide if there are any similarities between me and Miranda Priestly.' Explaining her sunglasses, she told the outlet that 'they help me see and they help me not see. They help me be seen and not be seen. They are a prop, I would say.'

Fortnite refund: How can you get yours after FTC announces $126m settlement, find out full process
Fortnite players who were wrongly charged for unwanted in-game purchases are set to receive a share of a $126 million refund this week, following a settlement with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). The refunds stem from a $245 million agreement reached between the FTC and Fortnite's developer, Epic Games, over allegations of deceptive online practices that led to players, including minors, being tricked into making unauthorised purchases. FTC initially announced the settlement in December 2022, marking it as the largest refund the agency had ever issued in a gaming industry case. The settlement follows accusations that Epic Games misled consumers into making in-game transactions they otherwise wouldn't have made. FTC also announced it will issue nearly 970,000 checks and PayPal payments to those who submitted valid claims, following an earlier round of payments in December 2022 totalling over $22 million. For Fortnite players seeking compensation, the FTC has set up a dedicated website where they can confirm their eligibility for a refund. The original deadline for filing claims was February 14, but the agency has now extended it to July 9. Players who have already submitted a claim after February 14 need not take further action. Those receiving checks are advised to cash them within 90 days, while PayPal refunds must be accepted within 30 days. To apply for a refund, players will need their claim number or Epic Account ID. For those under 18, a parent or guardian will need to submit the claim on their behalf. Players on social media have shared screenshots, confirming their refund amounts. Just got my Fortnite epic games refund — NATE (@NATERERUN) June 25, 2025 WE SO UP THANK YOU FORTNITE EPIC GAMES (I spent way more then that 😭💔) — Purdy (@Purdy6969) June 25, 2025 Fortnite is STILL paying us 💀 Did you file a FTC v Epic Games claim last year? More people are reporting they're starting to receive their payments! I totally forgot about mine lmao — Frugal Season (@Frugalszn) June 25, 2025 This action follows a separate 2023 agreement in which Epic Games was fined $275 million for violating the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) Rule, adding further scrutiny to the company's practices.

Fortnite player fined $175,000 and permanently banned after Epic Games lawsuit
Epic Games has won a significant legal battle against a Fortnite player accused of using cheating software and hardware during a competitive tournament. On June 25, 2025, a judge ruled in favor of Epic after the defendant failed to respond to the lawsuit, ordering the player to pay $175,000 in damages. The funds will be donated to charity, as confirmed by the company. The lawsuit was originally filed on December 18, 2024, after the cheater was caught exploiting Fortnite's systems during a competitive event. According to Epic Games, the player used multiple accounts and advanced cheating tools in an attempt to avoid detection but was ultimately exposed by their anti-cheat measures. THIS JUST IN: The Judge ruled in our favor after the cheater ignored our lawsuit. The player is required to pay $175,000 and we'll donate what we collect to charity. They are also banned from playing Fortnite forever. — Fortnite Competitive (@FNCompetitive) June 25, 2025 'Cheating has no place in Fortnite and we're doing everything we can to stop it, including legal action,' Epic said in an earlier statement. The ruling not only imposes a financial penalty but also enforces a lifetime ban on the player from Fortnite. 'The judge ruled in our favor after the cheater ignored our lawsuit,' Epic said in a public statement. 'The player is required to pay $175,000, and we'll donate what we collect to charity.' The gaming community has largely praised the decision, calling it a strong deterrent for future cheaters in competitive gaming. Content creator NickEh30 and gaming news outlet ModernWarzone both shared support on social media. This marks another instance of Epic Games leveraging the legal system to uphold competitive integrity. In a similar case earlier this year, another player was banned and had their prize money redirected to charity after cheating in the 2023 Fortnite Championship Grand Finals.
