In the intro, in the sentence “ He co-founded Vice magazine in 1996 at the age of 26”, please change the year to 1994 and remove “at the age of 26”. Vice was founded in 1994 but its name changed in 1996.

::@Somajyoti,This doesn't fit with the text we have, see 1st Career paragraph. He joined Voice in 1994 (did NOT found it) and bought it in 1996, changing the name to Vice. So either he co-founded Vice in 1996, or he joined its precursor in 1994. Robincantin (talk) 20:10, 4 April 2025 (UTC)
