It is now, and always has been a content rather than the loudest voice issue

Interesting article, possibly accurate. Though the source is a single anonymous employee. There's no official statement from the company or much other factual evidence to support the claim.

Vice.com as a whole definitely has a left or centre-left point of view. Business Insider is mainly just an aggregator site that repeats the original article.
