While we are shitting on Vice… I can’t get past Bill Maher’s association with the company. He’s a producer for their show on HBO. I really liked the first season. But as Maher’s unrelenting bigotry against muslims that he defends as liberalism became more and more strident I found that it tainted my trust in their reporting. It just makes me unwilling to give the show a fair shot- when I sit down to watch it I can’t get past the ick factor of knowing he has influence over it.
