it's crazy how vice dropped off. from real shit to kotaku.
He went to the fucking Golden Globes barely a month ago. You are a dunce.
He's also the founders of the Proud Boys and all around asshole. Again, this is what everyone I know who has interviewed or met him has described him as. I'm not sure what you're trying to argue here, besides the fact he's kept busy since his Vice days.
Don't recall. I just remember a few years ago a journalist in LA profiled him while I Was still working in the industry and it did not go over well for obvious reasons.Didn't he try and force himself on Lauren Southern?
It's the only time I've ever felt bad for her.

Not surprising. They got wildly biased over time, which caused me to stop watching all of their programming other than Dark Side of the Ring. I used to be a regular viewer of their network and they had good content that wasn't covered by other media outlets. Once they fell in line with the party line, the writing was on the wall.
It's amazing at how people argue against this. VICE was fucking awesome at one point. There was a clear shift in their reporting that turned people off.Not surprising.

how?You've been proven wrong
You said Shane hasn't been seen in years, the other posted a link showing he appeared at the Golden globes a month ago (post #75)how?
Vice never managed to turn a profit after their big US expansion. They were hugely overvalued and had a poor business model. They've also been left wing and transgressive from the start, that's the point of a publication like Vice.Not sure if it is a case of he classic “go woke, go broke”, but it seems that way.
Like many, I used to watch them too. They churned out some absolutely great stuff back in the day, and then just went all-in on the far left stuff. Shame. We need more content like old Vice gave us, not less.
I dont care about the money aspect of it. Tobacco companies make a killing, but I still wish it wasn’t around.Vice never managed to turn a profit after their big US expansion.

The lack of media literacy or basic business logic in this thread is impressive.
One would think that you would be tired of getting embarrassed.....Vice never managed to turn a profit after their big US expansion. They were hugely overvalued and had a poor business model. They've also been left wing and transgressive from the start, that's the point of a publication like Vice.

You're saying that it's a shame that Vice isn't around like they used to be, but you also claim that you don't care that they were absolutely bleeding money during all the coverage you loved?I dont care about the money aspect of it. Tobacco companies make a killing, but I still wish it wasn’t around.
And if you are saying there was no difference between them at the start and then at the end, well, don’t know what to tell you.
Ah yes, show the class how smart you are. You're in charge of Vice from 2012 to 2016, how do you monetize your company that's bleeding hundreds of millions of dollars?One would think that you would be tired of getting embarrassed.....
I don’t care about money. I said content like what vice once created, not vice itself. If they couldn’t stay afloat because of their financial decisions, then so be it. Even after their turn, they still went under, so it doesn’t matter anyway.You're saying that it's a shame that Vice isn't around like they used to be, but you also claim that you don't care that they were absolutely bleeding money during all the coverage you loved?
Something doesn't compute in your logic there.
When do you think things started changing for Vice? A lot of people convinced they went woke or something silly apparently never read their old stuff.
I also don't think you understand how Vice made money and how that affected it's decisions.

And yet you're the one saying it seems like go woke, go broke. So I guess you only stop caring about the financial aspects when you realized you don't know jack about the media industry.Not sure if it is a case of he classic “go woke, go broke”, but it seems that way.
Seems that way insinuates I don’t know, or not sure at the very least. Never said I did fully know what they did with their finances, but keep being a dick if it makes you hard, sport.And yet you're the one saying it seems like go woke, go broke.
