    Regarding what happened to VICE and its current state this article documents it pretty well: https://novaramedia.com/2023/08/…

    "In one particularly bleak scene, Jax staff moved a photo depicting a protester at a Sarah Everard protest in London in 2021, who is being arrested by police while wearing a t-shirt saying “Abuse of power comes as no surprise”, and replaced it with a map of Saudi Arabia.

    “That was a step too far. It felt tone deaf. How insensitive do you want to be?” said an employee who has since left the company.

    “It’s a completely hostile environment”, said a current employee. “It’s ridiculous.”"
