Vice Media is laying off workers, so let’s have a moment of silenceOK that’s enough.
Aw, who am I kidding? Break out the tiny violin!
“Thursday’s layoffs mainly came from Refinery29.”
I had honestly forgotten that Vice owned that feminist well of suck.
Vice had done some interesting work early on, but had gradually morphed into a hard-left Gawker-lite. Indeed, having either on your resume should be as toxic to future employment prospects as having Gawker itself on there.
And here’s a great zinger from The Babylon Bee’s managing editor:
Have them all come work for us at @TheBabylonBee. They can write the same kind of pieces they always did and we’ll just publish them as satire
