Neurosurgeon doesn't give his/hers content for free, Vice does. I would like to offer my token of appreciation through one or multiple "tips" when I encounter a FREE video I really liked, same way I do to some other content creators.

Vice shows ads. So does AP.

Vice’s business model doesn’t run on tips, it runs on ads and YouTube revenue split.

That’s nice that you want to tip a huge corporation but it seems that you are rare enough that Vice hasn’t found it meaningful enough to add a tip method.

Personally, seeing a tip jar on a “news” organization’s content would be about as welcome as seeing a tip dialog at my dentist office.
