Vogue released two different cover images for its February edition featuring Vice President Harris.
Some preferred the digital cover, saying the print cover was too casual and even disrespectful.
Now, the magazine is selling a limited number of print editions featuring the alternate cover image.
On the campaign trail, politicians are meant to be approachable, even casual, someone you’d want to have a beer with. But in office, they hold a power that has historically been shown a different level of respect.
As the first Black woman to hold the position, Vice President Harris is no longer “Kamala,†in black jeans and Converse sneakers, and Vogue -- which was criticized for being too casual with its original cover -- is recognizing that with a special edition of the magazine.
