Christopher Anderson, the veteran Vanity Fair photojournalist behind the striking images that accompanied the magazine’s explosive new Trump administration report, is not apologizing. In fact, he’s doubling down.
The photos ran alongside a two-part exposé by Vanity Fair reporter Chris Whipple, built from multiple on-the-record conversations with top figures inside President Donald Trump’s second-term White House. Those sources included Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, chief of staff Susie Wiles, press secretary Karoline Leavitt, and deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller. The reporting stirred serious buzz, but it was Anderson’s photos that really lit the fuse.
