    Yah, that’s what happens when independent news outlets get sold off to the highest bidder.

      I noticed the equal but opposite with the Drudge Report.

        We’ll see what happens with the onion having purchased infowars.

    Vice could not be reached for comment, as Vice’s publicly listed press email address now appears to be a private Google Group that doesn’t accept external emails.

    Really shows the state of things.

        If Vice fixes their email as a result of this article I’ll agree. It’s only better if it’s accidental.

      I wasn’t aware, that’s surprising from NPR. Could you please share the title or link to the NPR articles you’re referring to?

          I understand being bumed out by what’s being reported in these articles, these are bad news. But I don’t see an obvious hard right turn in how NPR is reporting. The article on Elon even mentions criticism for SpaceX’s environmental impact.

    I didn’t know it was a turn, so much as they were temporarily not saying out loud. Remember that Gavin McInnes is also a founder, and he is the proudest boy.
