Journalism is collapsing when it matters the most, especially when it comes to food—one of the most overlooked levers of power.
So I’m launching through food, a media platform that doesn’t tell you what’s tasty, but looks at the power, politics, and people shaping what we eat.
Our first episode is with Abbas Milhem, a lifelong farmer in the occupied West Bank. Over a meal of his choosing, he explains why farming on his land is considered a crime—because he’s Palestinian.
Welcome, and enjoy. This is just the beginning.

“People from Europe or the U.S. get to eat seafood that is clean, fresh, and cheap. But they don’t ask about the [Thai] fishermen’s lives or well-being. Some fishermen said their lives are worth less than the fish.” youtube.com/watch?v=qFXOvHiz…
Scammers are posing as masseurs on Grindr and Instagram, peddling fake appointments for erotic massages using photos and videos from fitness models and physiotherapists. For @VICENews, I spoke to one man who has become the scam's face (and body)
