The article that appeared below the OP article was about an internet feud between Nikki minaj and Meek Mill. So you're right, I am surprised but not in a good way.
- sbarre 10y agoMeh, Vice covers a wide spectrum of topics, all aimed at youth.. Some is heavy, some is not.. Find a mainstream (non-topic-specialized) publication that doesn't do that, and I'll be surprised.
- tormeh 10y agoThe Economist?
- astrodust 10y agoThese days The Economist and Teen Vogue have more in common than most are prepared to admit. It's disappointing that the only publications willing to tackle heavy issues are things like Vogue, The Rolling Stone and Vice Magazine. The rest seem content to sit back and take a more academic approach if they take one at all. USA Today, like CNN, is utterly worthless.
- newswriter99 10y agoRolling Stone lost all credibility after publishing that fake rape story.
- astrodust 10y agoOne story, all credibility, huh? You must live in a world where nobody is credible. The New York Times has suffered hits to its credibility, fake photographers, plagiarism and such, but that doesn't necessarily negate all the work done by their talented staff. There's still good work being done there despite those setbacks. It's a fallacy to instantly discount everything as without merit, putting it on the same level as Breitbart. Like always you need to regard things with a critical eye.
- baobrain 10y agoI would highly recommend checking out the Columbia school of journalism's analysis.[0] While other publications have had lapses in journalistic integrity, rolling stones case is especially egregious. Along every step of the way, the writer and her editors violated the basics of journalistic integrity, like not fact checking and trusting one side.

- Chris2048 10y ago> One story, all credibility, huh? Yes. The "story" made specific criminal accusations. > You must live in a world where nobody is credible. Publications are held to a different standard. > New York Times... but that doesn't necessarily negate all the work It just means you can no longer trust the publication. > putting it on the same level as Breitbart Here we go. Tell me what's wrong with Breitbart?
- phaemon 10y ago> Here we go. Tell me what's wrong with Breitbart? Every story they run on climate change is a pile of innumerate, scientifically illiterate crap? Those are the only stories I see from them as they get quoted for amusement value sometimes on the Sea Ice forums. But maybe their sports coverage is good or something. Who knows.
- Chris2048 10y ago> Who knows. You, apparently, since you talked of "the same level as Breitbart", though don't apparently know what that is. Also, if you have specific knowledge of a subject area, you might be inclined to a kind of reversal of the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect: judging a publication on you area of expertise alone, when publications may differ in their relative strengths.
- phaemon 10y agoNo I didn't, that was `astrodust`, not me. I was just providing an example of something that was wrong with them.
