#3Vice is... well, Vice.
I will miss their dispatches from war zones (I want to say "unfiltered", but they are filtered of course) and their Motherboard (Joseph Cox himself carries Motherboard on his back)

#4Do people consider this as a great loss?
I did not liked the sensationalistic format very much, so I avoided them, but they seemed to have done some investigative journalism?

Almost every closure of a real news outlet is a loss to society as a shrinking news market means stronger echo chambers and narrower reporting. Vice does some good reporting and in areas that others won't or only glaze over. Basically, variety & competition matters.

I liked their motherboard columns. Very informative and well presented.
