Chicago Antisocial

The first installment of Liz Armstrong's print-only column, Chicago Antisocial, roars into the redesigned Chicago Reader with a profile of the publisher of Vice magazine during a Chicago visit last weekend. "Earlier that evening an attractive young Asian lady had caught his eye," Armstrong writes. "She noticed, and struck up a little tete-a-tete with him. McInnes told me, 'I wanted to f--- the shit out of [her] until she starting talking'... But though it's full of newfangled fashions and up-and-coming artists, Vice is actually about complacency. Hey, the magazine seems to say, we're not all the same, and we never will be—so how 'bout we crack some dirty jokes and f---?"
