When they lost their quirky uniqueness, they lost their relevance. What's the difference between Vice today and Salon, Huffpo, etc? They become one of an interchangeable crowd.
I think Vice peaked around the time they put out This Is What Winning Looks Like. I haven't seen any media from Vice as compelling as that since then.

They had some interesting pieces from time to time, but nothing I ever thought of as particularly unique. Vice produced (and still does some times) some incredible pieces because they were able to get access to people who were otherwise inaccessible… or it required a level or risk that is simply unacceptable. I just came back to this thread because there’s an interview that just got posted a few hours ago with Maria Lvova-Belova IN Russia and it’s wild.
