I always wondered how VICE gets access to places and people a so called independent media would dream about. After listening to this report, it all make sense. Vice is nothing but Fox on Molly.

So herre I go again. I love you guys. If it wasn't for you I'd never know the history of Zionism. Noam Chomky led me to you Max. You and Ben are a great team. I gave up Bill Maher when he endorsed Trump making Jerusalem Israel's capital while admitting he's never been to Gaza. Dersowitz (however spelled) once said during the O.J. Simpson trial that "Wit whips truth". That's when I knew I hated his ugly ass. You've got a great sense of humor Max, even though a lot of it goes over my head. You guys are the "truth surveilance" and everyone is afraid of you (as well as Abby and her brother). Carry on guys and when I sell my house I'll subscribe. My old friend and I agreed the other night that just about everything we were taught to believe was a lie. I will do my best to turn people on to Moderate Rebels.

Max has used the phrase "New American Century". It has reminded me of yet another of maniacal neolib/neocon think tank called New America, currently headed by a neocolonial imperialist Anne-Marie Slaughter -- a former Obama's policy director, who has infamously fired one of the employees of New America for his critiques of Google, which is their main funder along with Eric Schmidt personally, who is presiding in Pentagon committees and who was the main pusher of Hillary Clinton presidency. Google, by the way, also has a revolving door with StateDep, exchanging executives/deputies with them and taking their commands to assist regime change coups via social media spying and manipulation (through software later transferred to Qatar' and its Al Jazeera TV network), as well as with the suppression of unfriendly leaks such as private Manning-released "Iraq helicopter" video that showed the military mass murdering people, including Reuters' journalists, and making a "double tap" on the first responders.
The previous head of New America Steven Coll now heads Columbia School of Journalism, which has founded Center for Digital Journalism that is constantly pushing neo-MacCarthyite xenophobic Russiagate hysteria such as "discovering" "the Russians" on Trumblr through a method of matching of account names with Twitter accounts that were "possibly" connected to "the Russians", even though Twitter defines millions of non-Russian Americans that visited Russia, as well as 800K Americans of Russian origin, as well as non-Russian Americans (there were few scandals about that) as "Russians".

Education[edit]
Weiss was born to a Jewish family[2] and educated at Townsend Harris High School, a public magnet high school in Flushing,Queens in New York City, from which he graduated in 1998,[3] followed by Dartmouth College in 2002 with a B.A. in History.[4]
Life and career[edit]
Weiss has served as co-chair of the Russia Studies Centre at the Henry Jackson Society (HJS).[5]
Weiss currently serves as the editor-in-chief for the online magazine Interpreter, which translates and analyzes Russian news,[6][7] and senior editor of The Daily Beast, a regular columnist for Foreign Policy magazine. In 2015, he co-wrote the book ISIS: Inside the Army of Terror with Hassan Hassan.[8][9][10]
In November 2014, Weiss published a special report in his online magazine the Interpreter that accused Russia of waging "propaganda and disinformation" campaigns. Weiss's report included recommendations on how to confront Russian propaganda which included creating an “internationally recognized ratings system for disinformation.”[11] The recommendations were criticized in an article written by James Carden (executive director of the lobbying organization[12][13][14] American Committee for East–West Accord) in the politically progressive outlet The Nation as a "censorship campaign."[15]; Weiss would subsequently feud publicly[16][17][18]
In March 2015, in an article cowritten with Michael Pregent, Weiss accused Iran-backed Iraqi Shia militias of committing extensive atrocities against Sunni civilians in the course of their war against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, including "burning people alive in their houses, playing soccer with severed human heads, and ethnically cleansingand razing whole villages to the ground." Weiss and Pregent suggested that "Iran's Shi'ite militias aren't a whole lot better than the Islamic State."[19]
Weiss joined CNN in April 2017.[20]
Personal life[edit]
He is married to Amy Thirjung.[21]
