Vice Media in talks to acquire Cred Forums from Hiroyuki Nishimura

Oh man that's going to be something special. Finally the leafs will own Cred Forums!

to SHUT IT DOWN what els

The nip wouldn't sell he's too autistic and doesn't care about money

8 chan here i come

damn that would be pointless everyone would just start using another chan

why would you buy a non profitable website?

My favorite part about this thread is the abundance of links.

Vice probably recognizes the enormous political/social power that exists here.

>reee i'm leaving for #chan
>#chan gets ddos'ed
>everybody comes crawling back to Cred Forums, no matter how retarded the mods are

This has happened about 200 times before.

You'd know this if you weren't a complete newfag.

>no sauce

Wow that would be awful, they're extremely anti-Trump and worse, they're basically Gawker 2.0 at this point

SAGE

Memes aren't profitable?

op are you trying to trick me haha

vice is Rupert Murdoch...

I believe in Hiro.
He's more intereseted in original content than money and propaganda.

they want to acquire memes

Rupert Mudoch is pro-weed?

They underestimate the value of Memes

the leafs are always honest if nothing else

Nice, we lets see what happens when they try to censor/destroy us.

vice is owned by the disney corporation. this is bad.
>en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vice_Media

Vice went to shit after it got bought by Murdoch.
There's so much "progressive" bullshit and white man hate that it overshadowed the good reports.

>a fucking leaf
to SHUT IT DOWN

dont do it hiroshimoot

you're thinking of Rupert Grint

qI

I'm pretty sure they can afford to pay for 3 McD cheeseburgers

so that they can moderate it and turn it into a leftist hugbox shithole

its alright though because there are other chans as backup, worst case we invade reddit

You're not ready for the autism that is 8/pol/

We're talking pure, angry Aspergers staring at a purple board for 16 hours a day and unironically hunting for jews and bbc pictures

It's fucking nofun-central as well.

If this is true then I'll one-up them and offer $4.

Fucking Jews own and run it too. Headquartered in Jew York city.

We go to splinter chans which further splinter us due to the infighting, autism, and attention whoring/namefagging/e-begging that always infests and almost always destroys every single satellite chan.

It will not be the same without the mothership. We need to protect it if we can.

Why did moot sell Cred Forums?

Nobody will buy this place to ruin it since everyone would just go to a new site. And it's not like the memesters and shitposters haven't already begun to take over Twitter anyway.

to fuck with those evil muhsogeekneest racist alt-right white males

Because of Cred Forums.

because we kept fucking around and getting him sued

VICE is owned by the CIA. It's been nice, lads.

because the word cuck broke him

Source?

Those were the days. Fuck moot was one hell of an admin.

Cred Forums isn't alt-right fucktard

he landed a sweet deal at Google that's why

also the gamergate thing, he had to lawyer up and stuff

The Fappening alone cost him tens of thousands in legal fees. It almost killed Cred Forums.

source now leaf

>giving vice access to 15 years of your posting history

What happened to the daily shoah?

Based Gook not letting the Jews subvert

He was tired of being the admin.
He dealt with our shit for over a decade. It's really surprising he had as much patience as he did.

He sold it to Hiro (more like gave it away) because he knew Hiro wouldn't give in to shit and keep Cred Forums as Moot intended it to be.

Hiro isn't going to sell Cred Forums. Why would he?

He got mad after Cred Forums exposed him for being a fuck
He also probably got tired of all the drama and media attention like the fappening and gamer gate.

...

That's not a smart decision! They will cut a hydra's head!

Didnt he get funds raised tho?

What kind of money are we talking about here?

If it's less than $500k I wouldn't mind running this shit unless I'm going to get sued every week over stupid stuff.

Vice had it taken off soundcloud. They bantzed their reporter too hard.

Here's Moot's final q&a

I remember how sad that day was.

>he went for 8 straight hours

youtube.com/watch?v=XYUKJBZuUig

You fucking spergs are really freaking out because some fag made a thread with the Vice logo?

OH SHIT IT MUST BE TRUE

It is pretty rough. I think if we ever had to ditch Cred Forums we could take it over though.

Yes, but it totally broke him and left the site totally vulnerable. I'm pretty sure it was then he realized he had to sell.

That fas bitch happened....for 3 hours. Breddy painful experience.

>HEROyuki

This isn't real.

>tfw you were there when it happened and stayed with him listening the entire time

i still feel like my died

>Not posting original version

Alt-right, like that even exists. Stupid fool an exodus wouldn't be to reddit of all places, there are other options.

you do know vice was founded by an alt right trump supporter who goes out of his way to fuck with feminist right?

>The whole reason Moot sold the site in the first place was because it was barely profitable. What the fuck would Vice want with it?

HEROYUKI is right!

FUCK VICE!

22 second, two lies. Not Robert Goin, and the site was founded in '03. Under oath, none the less.

I'm not racist, but if they fuck up Cred Forums...shit, I might go to stormfront or wherever it is that I can find amusing, racist shit and an opposing view to the MSM.

Everyone back to the Megatokyo forums!

bullshit. if he cared about interesting Cred Forums then turn it back pre2012 went mook went full cuck

yes but he ended up getting shekeled out of his own baby and sold his stake in the company.

Now he's shilling for Rebel Media and Vice has taken on the jizzshit encrusted mantle left behind by Gawker.

Great source there

Hiro is a hero

LUGGAGE

STOP PARROTING THIS

This site has always been profitable. Large sites usually say they "just make enough" to not get backlash from their community. They dont want you to feel like they are making money off your chatting and having fun.

he sold it because of that lefite girl that kept cucking him for a while.
it was sad to see him getting cucked in those pictures she posted

>Gamergate scandal portrays this site and its owner as the devil
>He has to lawyer up
>Some mass shooter,murderer,rapist,kidnaper,etc for the 10th time this week announces his deed or shows it off here.
>Moot has to lawyer up again
>The fappening happens and the entire media is trying to murder 4chins for the stupidity of some famous vapid whores and Apple.
>Moot has to lawyer up again
>CP posted daily and Moot has to respond for that
>/news/ becomes /stormfront/ and it starts to leak everywhere causing moot to respond for his site,again.
>/news/ now reborn as Cred Forums catches Moot's cuckqueen cucking him, and humilliates him site-wide for it.
>Moot tries to nuke Cred Forums like almost a month or 2.
>He stops his faggot rage and simply walks off

>Hiroshima Nagasaki gets the site
>Within his first week some faggot over at /r9k/ announces the shooting of a college and it happens, the media puts its attention on THE INTERNET HATE MACHINE Once again, this time naming Pepe , "The grinch wearing a mask and holding a gun"

Such is life in the 4chins

I miss Moot, but Hiroshimoot is a pretty cool guy.

We can just make a new one if they shut it down

People actually pay money for this shithole?

VICE is owned by Murdoch, if anyone's buying Cred Forums its gonna be him.
t. Actual VICE employee

to shut down or 'moderate' opinions that they feel are (((dangerous)))

Vice is backed by the CIA.

Daily reminder

Yeah this is an asset that if you could harness would produce intangible benefits that could not be accurately captured on a balance sheet.

The issue is it is difficult, if not impossible, to control this board. It's power lies in anonymity and free speech taken to the extreme, such that boards like Cred Forums can strip the falsehood out of a story faster than a hot knife can cut through butter.

Only way to control this space would be a very gentle moderation of content, and even that might fail as a political motive would eventually become apparent based on what was deleted.

>tfw you'll get sued millions for breaking meme copyright in a few years

We have to keep the normies in the dark about the meme market. I'm personally making a killing right now and I hope you fags are, too. Pro-tip: day trading rare spurdos is paying off these days

jews fear the samurai

based

...

YOURE A PROTECTOR OF FREE SPEECH FOR THE WORLD HIRO

DONT SELL OUT FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

I still can't watch it, feels like I do, then it really is it

If Vice bought Cred Forums we'd all just go to another chan

(((((Vice)))))

the site doesn't make any fucking money and he was done jerking it to loli anime 14 hoiurs a day

There was that VICE reporter who was here last night. It might be possible, but a stupid move. Everyone would leave.

>OH NOES! WE'LL HAVE TO TYPE 8 INTO OUR BROWSERS INSTEAD OF 4!?!?!?!

HOW WILL Cred Forums EVER RECOVER?

He's so based ;_;7 lets just hope he keeps that mentality.

Link to thread?

australians bullied him too much

This man is a hero

MOOT IS A FAGGOT

FUCK MOOT

BRING BACK SNACKS

Too get rid of us. Hillary wasted billions on her campaign.

A FUCKING LEAF

Cred Forums can singlehandedly swing elections

people would pay money for that kind of power

This. He's based but it's true, Cred Forums isn't profitable. Why do you think Moot got rid of it? It was doing nothing but hurting his reputation, yet that hardly matters to Hiroyuki.

VICE IS CONTROLLED OPPOSITION
DOOMED

>no source

the leaf does it again

seriously i had a dream leafs were banned from pol

BAN CANADA

>he went for 8 hours straight
And barely made it through one thread

Enjoy everyone fucking off to 8ch.

he was drunk by the end too and said shit like cuckold is the thinking mans fetish and he felt pretty zen about the whole thing

Never forget that the CIA funded several magazines included Ms Magazine. I would not put it past them to give funds to an organisation like VICE in order to acquire what is easily the most well known and visited subversive and counter-culture site on the internet.

Vice media has net worth of $1.4 billion you mong. And Shane Smith is worth $400 million. I think he can afford to buy an Indonian rice-cooking forum if he wants it bad enough.

None of that happened, he got a fucking subway sandwich at the end

Why on earth moot would get sued?

Does facebook get sued everytime some nigger threatens to kill a police officer?

Cred Forums is obliged to remove content protected by DMCA and prevent from posting it (file a complain with hash of your file and noone will be able to post it)

Those fuckers are too damned serious. Only problem with 8pol is that I can only take so much NatSoc propaganda. Gotta have some fun stuff too.

no, it literally did not make a profit for moot. he sold it for something like 10k.

thats probably the intent

i listened to the whole thing that day faggot and he did all of that shit

lel everyone would just leave

If Vice buys Cred Forums, then post a dead cat. Pretty self-explanatory.

Never going to happen - we're too much of a headache.

No respectable company wants to be associated with a site that regularly posts gore, porn, and raids the shit out of celebrities and other websites. We'd be a lawsuit waiting to happen.

No respectable company is going to try and shut us down either, because they'd be signing their own death warrant. Literally the equivalent to standing in a room with a glass wall between you and 70,000 gallons of human excrement and smashing it with a sledgehammer.

>based hiroyuki likes Cred Forums exactly for what it is, and doesn't want it to go to shit

hes keeping moots legacy alive lads

This is why the Jew fears the samurai. They are willing to put other values ahead of profit. Jews don't understand why anyone could value anything more than money.

I listened to the whole thing, too. He wasn't drunk and he made a joke, you fucking retard.
