2015 cover of harper s bazaar sales increased by 0.8% and that is a huge jump. it could have been the shark, though. it could have been yes. maybe jaws. maybe shark-nado. who knows? but this is a huge increase for an industry typically plagued by declining revenue. when she was on the cover of vogue in march 2014 she beat out the taylor swift team selling 11.2% more magazines. that is bankability and perhaps the power and presence of black women could spark a change in the fashion world. joining me now is the editor in chief of ebony magazine and vp of digital contempt and one of my loves, and joyce chang, editor in chief of self magazine. so i want to start with you. your cover just came out for a september issue with, what, is
gold standard on such statistics, they put that number closer to 11.2 out here. so a lot of folks out here wanting to fact check trump as he s making this campaign swing. as he should be thank you so much. msnbc s amanda sakuma in phoenix. and msnbc will bring you donald trump s speech at 2:50 eastern time and then following that his news conference which is scheduled for 3:30 eastern. let s go to developing news overseas now. secretary kerry and iran foreign minister zarif are meeting today along with their european partners at the iran nuclear talks in vienna. yesterday negotiators missed their third deadline following a week filled with promises of progress and accusations of stall tactics. joining me again from vienna. chief foreign affairs correspondent andrea mitchell. once again, let s take a look as i say welcome to the key issues on the table today. what s top of your mind? i think the u.n. resolution.
i can spell out the actual word. but i don t think we ll find any more evidence that links him to it because he s too shrewd. so the question is, how long will it be drawn out? how dirty will it get? maybe he didn t do it, liz. maybe he really didn t know. or maybe one of these witnesses turn. we don t know. but what do we know about chris christie? when is he is the news? when there s news about bridgegate, which is bad. when he s yelling at a heckler, which is bad. and on every other big issue, he hasn t said anything. he s not pronounced his opinions on this. so from what we do know about chris christie, it looks bad. whoa whoa whoa whoa it already did look bad. on the other hand, yes, he does get a lot of bad publicity. look at the polls. the latest polling averages christie against the gop field for 2016. jeb bush leads with 14.3%. paul ryan, 11.2, then chris
