• More trouble at Condé Nast: Ad pages at Vogue are down 31 percent this year and Vanity Fair experienced a 52 percent drop in May alone. The silver lining: Graydon Carter's lavish expense account remains unaffected. [NYP]
• The Sun really may be returning after all. As a website, that is. Seth Lipsky says "there's a business plan for the site in the formative stages." [Politico]
• This certainly isn't a good sign: It seems NBC is exploring the possibility of leasing out part of its headquarters in Washington D.C. [NYO]
• More desperate: NBC will air another season of Celebrity Apprentice. [THR]
• The Portfolio names/logos that never were (and more on its closing). [NYO]
Al Roker will co-host a Weather Channel show called Wake Up With Al from 6 to 7 a.m. Because waking up with Al is what you've always dreamed of. [NYT]
• Oprah Winfrey's Twitter usage is way down. So much for that! [AdAge]

DoubleClick CEO missed the Google memo, lauds Microsoft-Yahoo

Forgive DoubleClick CEO David Rosenblatt. As his company's merger with Google drags on, he must not have gotten a chance to attend new-Googler orientation yet. Some day he'll learn to toe the company line. Google has forbidden employees to speak on the Microsoft-Yahoo deal, but today AlleyInsider caught Rosenblatt telling the crowd at the DeSilva+Phillips conference in New York that the Microsoft-Yahoo merger makes sense. At least for Microsoft.
