Which part of that discredits what I said about the quality of content at Vice news? Her 18 years working as a “fill in“ news anchor/talking head? In between a short stint as PR pusher a bitcoin advocacy company in Toronto before earning the title as ‘editor’ of the Finance section of Vice?

That’s fine if that’s your thing but I put higher standards on the HN front page.
