VICE QUEEN Beauty in the (black) eye of the beholder
Vbs.tv, the Web-based video venture from hipster magazine and lifestyle conglomerate Vice, only launched last week, but it is already getting attention from youth-hungry mainstream media outlets. The online network, helmed by Adaptation director Spike Jonze, aims to "exploit every utopian vision the Internet has thus far failed to live up to." Such diverse outlets as the Discovery Channel, MTV, and, strangest of all, straight-laced CBS news program 60 Minutes have sniffed around Vice's gonzo travel idea.
