Show Notes

VICE Has Been CANCELED, Mass Layoffs Hit Company. About 250 people are expected to lose their jobs starting today which is about ten percent of VICE media's workforce. This comes almost immediately after Buzzfeed and Huffington Post laid off significant portions of their staff. For VICE The news is particularly bad as they have had their flagship show "VICE" canceled from HBO. Far left, ragebait, "super woke" content doesn't seem to work in the long run and many of these companies are looking to reduce staff in particular areas. Vice will see layoffs affect every division of the company however, not just digital media.
