I have a friend who works at Vice. I been to 3 of there monthly happy hours they used to have in BK in williamsburg. The bar was right across the street from their headquarters at the time. I've seen like 2 black people at these happy hrs. Their office was a pretty big open space. They moved to a smaller spot in Greenpoint. From what she's told me, she hasn't had her a desk in like 3 months.....and yeah, she's white.
