Is Vice magazine a reliable source?

I mean, I have found Vice to be useful with some of its stories and not useful with others. Maybe a better source could be found regarding his anti-feminist views and so forth... such a source shouldn't be difficult to find.--Phil of rel (talk) 22:10, 24 August 2021 (UTC)

COVID-19/Newsweek

@X-Editor: I see you've re-added the information about Yiannopoulos having COVID-19, which is still only sourced to Newsweek. I removed this yesterday with a summary mentioning WP:NOTNEWS and WP:NEWSWEEK: . I have concerns about using that Newsweek article as a source, namely the apparent lack of fact-checking that went into an article reporting that he "had a 93-degree fever". GorillaWarfare (she/her • talk) 20:09, 30 August 2021 (UTC)

I'd be fine with waiting for another source to cover this story. X-Editor (talk) 20:20, 30 August 2021 (UTC)
I'd prefer that plan of action. Would you self-revert? Firefangledfeathers (talk) 20:31, 30 August 2021 (UTC)
I removed it just now. XOR'easter (talk) 02:22, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
Thanks, I'm seeing another piece in PinkNews and nothing else so far. Firefangledfeathers (talk) 02:25, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
Milo's alleged covid situation is questionable, shady; he is a attention craving provocateur and cannot be taken seriously. "Pink" is gossip blog. He lied many times in order to become a headline news even in gossip blogs. (His whole life is a mess, especially his alleged marriage and "new" celibate life as a devout Catholic and "TruNews" contributor.) Moelscene (talk) 06:20, 26 September 2021 (UTC)

New Photo

Can we get a photo for Milo that isn't 6 years old? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:601:511:1C1F:5880:B5D:1109:D1D9 (talk) 20:49, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
