A fearless, raw approach to storytelling is the trademark of "VICE," a groundbreaking newsmagazine series that tackles global issues often overlooked by traditional media. From anti-government rebellions, to hotbeds of terrorist activity, to conflict and corruption, "VICE" uses an engrossing documentary style to bring unique perspective to events shaping the future. The series takes its name from a youth media company operating in more than 34 countries. Its founder, Shane Smith, is the host and chief on-air correspondent of "VICE," joined by a network of reporters including VICE co-founder Suroosh Alvi, documentary filmmaker and author Ben Anderson, Academy Award-winning documentary filmmaker and journalist Fazeelat Aslam, and Iranian photojournalist and filmmaker Gelareh Kiazand.

08/30/2016 Outstanding documentary series! Truly a show for people who want to learn about our world's happenings. Refreshing in in the sense of unbiased journalism. See more 05/31/2015 Season 2 takes over where season 1 left off, discussing topics the world over that are easily overlooked by mainstream news outlets, and willfully ignored by the 'establishment' media. If you can't get enough, see yourself over to YouTube, where their two channels, VICE and VICE News continue doing what they do best, free from the strictures of a weekly 30-minutes television slot. For the uninitiated, some good places to start would be their various "VICE Guide(s) to Travel" -- following gripping and complex real-life stories in places like war-torn Liberia, and the reclusive kingdom of North Korea -- along with their multitude of "Dispatch" series -- featuring on-the-ground reporting from places of conflict, included over 100 episodes from the Russian annexation of Crimea alone -- and more obscure series like Hamilton's Pharmacopeia -- which explores psychotropic and psychedelic experiences, such as ayahuasca or poisonous toads in the rainforest.
