Hours after multiple staffers expressed concern that Vice Media was considering shuttering or gutting its flagship news website following the brand’s sale to a consortium of its former bankruptcy lenders, the CEO of the company weighed in with a memo (below) detailing sweeping change.

Vice Media chief Bruce Dixon confirmed that “several hundred” staffers would be laid off and “we will no longer publish content on vice.com” as the company transitions to a “studio model” to sell its content to other outlets.

Earlier in the day, editors from different parts of Vice met with their staffs and informed them that they have asked management for clarity on the situation but haven’t received a reply. Vice News’ top editor Josh Visser addressed staffers on a midday Zoom and said he had given senior executives of the company, including CEO Dixon, an opportunity to deny rumors the site was shuttering, but he had not heard back, which he described as “very upsetting.”
