Go woke go broke

I’ve been a media entrepreneur for 20 years, and the problem is not, as Chris Harris says, that “everyone can broadcast to anyone” on social media. And there’s actually quite a lot of money in journalism. The problem is 1) Advertising has moved to Google and Facebook since they offer better targetting and a one-stop for advertisers. 2) Because the internet was brand new in the 90s, no one could really charge for content initially, and a culture of free digital content took roots with media users. It is finally changing, and paywalls are becoming acceptable, but it’s a long process. 3) A widespread system for micropayments is still missing from the internet. Online transactions are still expensive and cumbersome, so a media outlet can’t, say, charge 20p for you to read an article or watch a Vice documentary. The subscription model rules, and it favours a few bigger outlets.

Unfortunately new age media platforms don't have deep pockets which traditional media houses enjoy & use to tide over rough patches. Also the proximity to status quo establishments which legacy media houses have built over the years allows their sustenance while the lack of that proximity, kind of denies a safety blanket for these new age reporting groups.

Those like VICE would cover some important subjects for reporting that often had little attention paid to them otherwise, but great care with verified, factual detail and multiple perspectives being included is the hard part and would get placed somewhere under production values as priorities. This was especially painful when covering highly technical subjects where it was obvious that no one involved in creating the story knew enough to avoid looking ignorant.

A company with dubious journalistic integrity and ethics, specialising in puff pieces - it is good that they have gone down.

Young impressionable millennials are in their 30s now; got that MBA, double masters, with a minor in history... and they know better than to get their news from VICE. VICE got outclassed. Be honest, journo degree isnt hard. Which is competing with history majors and econ majors for attention. I dont care what some soyboy thinks about Ukraine. I need facts, not a propaganda piece. If i was VICE Executive Officer... i'd have taught my staff Spanish. This would all be tragic, if it wasn't poetic justice. Couldn't have happened to a better company. Vice is that teacher that dropped your lowest homework and curved your grades. Millennials are realizing that's why they lose to the kid that took college calc in high school. Facts matter, reality has a low tolerance for bulllshit. TL;DR: if you stopped watching VICE rn, would you miss anything that you couldnt get anywhere else?

Vice tried contacting us almost a decade ago trying to do a video on Christian Death. They looked so hip-hop and and poppy in their gimmick and marketting - we promptly ignored them and their continued e-mails.

Vice was great back in the day and I loved how personal and passionate their journalism was. You could tell the journalists were passionate because they would go to such lengths and put themselves into danger just to get to the truth. My problem, however, was that they became too radical and even extreme left-leaning...to the point they just spread activism rather than the objective truth. It was all about 'feelings' rather than actual news reporting. I'm not sad they failed, I'm happy that such a media corporation spreading such useless stuff is failing.

Their “legacy” is already based off on something else's, their hitherto-uncredited spiritual-ancestor ever since one of the Occidental Messiahs in "iHindoo IT Cell", Gavin McInnes( no salutation!) was booted-out - leading way to their reincarnation in 2007-ish.

I was extremely skeptical about having to pay for this service, but it was worth every penny! E-Working is easy to use and gives you full visibility into easy earnings opportunities that truly allow flexibility. As a full-time working mom, E-Working made it so much easier to find the right job. I'm so thankful and blessed to have E-Working point me in the right direction, where the grass is truly greener from a career development standpoint, not to mention work-life balance.

they did make the best news doc's many years ago, it will come back just needs to be alot smaller

I am so shock because I love vice’s documentaries!!!

Go woke go broke

What a shame!!!...,loved the investigative journalism they provided on topics and issue that mainstream news media wouldnt cover.

it hurts a lot to see vice news to be facing such crisis

That's good news. They were getting too biased with their reports.

Vice was great, went wokeish and lost most people including me, it’s not rocket science to figure out what happened

Who'd have thought that Vice turning their focus to nonsense and drivel would turn out to be a poor choice.

Very sad day. I've been watching Vice for years.💔

Motherboard was just a hate outlet and vice became just as ignorant when they lost gavin

This is what happens when you spew propaganda instead of facts

looking forward to watching a vice documentary about it

Vice didn't filter anything and that's why people loved them

They started off as an incredible news channel and maintained a great reputation in the consumer news community, but eventually they started to fall off and you could tell that a lot of their funding was swaying them "too far left" which turned their news into a bias source of information. Overall, I could definitely see this coming because they were an independent news organization and after a while of being directed by their investors to do irrelevant news topics, they lost viewers. You can't just have any old investor come in and run your news channel. If you're being funded to cover stories that don't relate to what your channel represents, then you're self-sabotaging your own organization at that point.

they have great resources and cover topics other media can't, its unfortunate to say but they did their best.

I am very sorry to see Vice filing for bankruptcy. Such a great content is now gone for good.

Thats really sad to hear... I liked vice they are making really good documentaries and other stuff :(.

Vice was really good in their inception but became a version of Buzzfeed/Vox and went totally woke, and the quality of their content took a steep dive.

Vice had some of the best documentaries I've ever seen in my life Definitely influenced my youth but in later years they got way too political and Lost their audience due to their extreme bias like people just want a story sometimes man everything doesn't have to be political...

That’s pretty damn sad.

Sad to see this happen

I really hope they survive. As a foreign consumer of Vice media, it is refreshing to see that they are self-aware of all the “vices“ and biases of the anglo speaking rich countries. You can see that they try to have a worldly style, and generally, they can achieve it.

My heart is breaking. VICE News has always brought us honest and non-biased news.

Go woke, go broke

That is certainly a shock and never saw it coming, considering their status of being active in this present day. Like didn't they share a mini documentary just a week ago?

Andrew Tate must be LOVING this 😂

They got too woke

They did some great reporting.

Although I liked their foreign journalism, the domestic journalism went way too heavy on pushing an agenda. I just think people are sick of their news pushing any agenda for that matter.

Go woke go broke….

was funny seeing Andrew Tate make fun of the vice reporter who also works for BBC

I used to read their magazines and watch their docs but once they sold, they became garbage.

The traditional media delayed but they're catching up. Same as EVs with car manufacturers. For big companies it's difficult to change course so fast but when they do, they have the power to overcome the competition.
