The Watch Sleeping Beauty Onlineplot thickens as the lengthy feud between Donald Trump and Vanity Fair rages on.
In the latest move, Graydon Carter, editor of the Condé Nast magazine, has decided not to attend the president's White House Correspondents Dinner, because he would really just rather go fishing.

Carterexplained the magazine has "...taken a break from the dinner in the past," and this year he's got hot plans to spend the weekend fishing in Connecticut.
Though Bloomberg has indeed sponsored the event on its own before, this year things definitely seem personal.
Carter and Trump have been rivals for decades, and recently threw down in December after Trump bashed Vanity Fair's numbers following ascathing restaurant review of Trump Tower's Trump Grill.

Though Trump publicly called out Carter and declared the magazine "dead," Vanity Fairfired back by announcing an increase in subscriptions and proudly displayed the president's negative comments on its January cover -- a move that was also pulled in April 2016.

When questioned why he decided to cancel co-sponsoring the event, he bluntly replied, "Trump," later adding, "and the fish."
The New Yorker is also canceling the dinner's kickoff party that it usually holds at the W Hotel, according to spokeswoman Natalie Raabe.
Look's like the ball is in Trump's court now...
