Vice partnership with MTV

I tried to add information about the vice partnership with MTV, but wikipedia insists that i am trying to insert a blacklisted link... http://www.nytimes.com/2007/11/19/business/media/19vice.html —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.22.57.5 (talk) 21:24, 19 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

American Conservative Article

"In response to these criticisms, co-founder Gavin McInnes published an article attacking liberals in The American Conservative entitled "Hip to Be Square: It’s getting cooler to be conservative" in August 2003. McInnes later said the article was written as a joke."

I've removed the line "McInnes later said this article was written as a joke" because I can't find a quote verifying this. If there is some proof, I'd like to see it. As far as I'm concerned, he was 100% serious about being a .

Empire's are awesome. Darth Bush is the new Queen. Rule Amerikkka. P.S. if the point is in dispute, don't add it. Not that it matters, Wikipedia isn't "fact". Its the citations we should be worrying about. 194.72.54.162 (talk) 14:56, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

ummm free?

Their website is currently requiring 30 USD for a North American subscription. Is it free if you find it at a stand or something? It would also be nice to have some information on where it can be found out and about.


Umm yeah ive found being free at magazine stands and cafés altough those magazines were a bit outdated.


yeah it's free and can be found in most cities at certain stores in most cities. they don't really like to do subscriptions, that's why they cost money. -g —Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.197.245.159 (talk) 16:07, 14 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Racism

Also of note is that Vice published an article on the band Prussian Blue. That article was not critical of the band and did not challenge anything that this group stands for. In the audio commentary on that article the Vice commentator says that "my only beef with these people is their issue with race mixing." So he DOESNT take issue with Holocaust denial, eugenics, separatism, or pro-Hitler sentiments? He also, apparently, doesnt have a problem calling people "chinks." see http://www.viceland.com/issues/v11n10/htdocs/hello.php

Vice should be taken with a pinch of salt. If you don't like your "freedom Fries" with salt don't have salt. However boycotting a whole culture might be considered racism. Does that make Amerikkka racist?

Fair use rationale for Image:Vice Magazine.jpg

Image:Vice Magazine.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
