Constitutes: corporate media

Vice News (stylized as VICE News) is Vice Media's current affairs channel, producing daily documentary essays and video through its website and YouTube channel. It promotes itself on its coverage of "under-reported stories".[1]

Owned by among others Rupert Murdoch and George Soros, it closely follows the corporate media agenda in all major issues, but does so with a youthful style, hence the frequent use of accoutrements such as hipster clothes, punk bands, skateboards and tattoos. The channel has been used to create youth support for foreign interventions in places such as Venezuela, Syria, Libya and the Ukraine, and other oligarch agendas.

The Vice News YouTube page has 6.02 million subscribers as well as more than 1.8 billion views in total[2]. In August 2014, was described by The Guardian as one of the fastest growing channels on YouTube.[3]

"Vice's brand image marketing as an edgy, hip outlet have helped drive its popularity with young people", says media critic Charles Johnson. "Mainstream media is not trusted by a lot of people, and rightly so, so they [Vice] step in and fill in", he says. "People see a sense of fun behind it. Jon Stewart is very popular, but he's an entertainer. Vice is something similar."[4]

Quotes by Vice News

Black site“A small group of people in Johnston County NC are investigating their state’s role in the CIA's torture and rendition program. Last fall, they had a series of public hearings on the subject and on May 7th they're planning to meet with their commissioners in an effort to compel their county's very conservative board of commissioners to issue a ban on the use of public resources for rendition or torture, and to publicly acknowledge what they found: that a CIA contractor called Aero operating out of the local county airport, handled some 80% of rendition flights between September 2001 and March 2004.”2018
Netherlands/Deep state“The Netherlands has a long history with cocaine. In the early 1900s, the Dutch East India Company – having exploited and enslaved millions of people – began growing coca in its colonies in Indonesia. There was even a cocaine factory in Amsterdam, which supplied marching powder to all sides in World War One. When international treaties finally put a halt to the Dutch’s rampant coke dealing, Rotterdam emerged as a key import site for the illicit trade of the drug from South America.”2020Vice News
