What’s happening at Columbia will go down as a pivotal moment in U.S. student protest history.

Yet Columbia, home to the Pulitzers and the Knight First Amendment, isn’t letting journalists, faculty, researchers in.

We want to continue to promote this important story as much as possible even well past its air date.

If you’re interested in having us on your platform, show, podcast, blog or publication - please let me know! Our featured families would love to keep their stories alive as well

If anyone is in the market for a public speaker, event emcee, or panel moderator, please feel free to reach out to me! I have experience doing all three and would love to do more of it. I am currently based in Washington D.C. but am available to travel.

β€œWhen I told people I worked at Vice, I’d usually get a sneering response – β€˜You think you’re so cool, don’t you?’– but the reality was my co-workers were phenomenally decent people who were good at their jobs. I wish I could say the same for the executives.”

Well, they finally got me! After nearly 9 years at VICE and somehow dodging layoff after layoff (10+ I think?) it'll be over for me in May. They're letting me finish my last documentary and then I'm out. Gonna save my sentimental words for a later time. Need to gather my thoughts

Well, I knew it was coming. But it's finally here. I just received notice that VICE will be letting me go on April 5th.

One of my colleagues got a notice he was being laid off today and was booted out of the system within 10 minutes. He was in the middle of finishing up graphics for a doc that will air in a few weeks. We were gchatting with him about edits, and then he was gone.

VICE booted my colleague from the system ten minutes after telling him he's getting laid off. We were in the middle of chatting about gfx revisions for a documentary edit that's due tonight. Just out mid-chat without a warning.

I am increasingly convinced that worker-owned sites like 404/Defector/Aftermath are the only way forward for independent web-based journalism. Tech companies/VCs don't care about you, newsletters are cults of personality where the focus is you. Worker-owned hits the sweet spot

Just incredible. The CEO of VICE is giving up on one of the most popular global media brands, firing its journalists and shutting down Vice.com in order to 'transition to a studio model' which means... what? Posting brand stuff to Instagram?

so when are they going to start laying off all the useless media executives whose bad business decisions keep tanking beloved publications instead of axing the workers who create all of the actual value

lol today I found myself translating an Arabic interview for 7 different journalists at a press scrum. That’s because 7 different news organizations didn’t bother sending a goddamn Arabic speaker to the Middle East. We need to decolonize the media. The system is broken.
