Flashback: David Carr Confronts Vice’s Shane Smith: ‘Just Because You Put on a F***ing Safari Helmet and Looked at Some Poop Doesn’t Give You the Right to Insult What We Do’

EXCERPT:

SMITH: "That’s -- that's f***ing crazy! So the actual — our audience goes, 'That’s f***king insane, like, that’s nuts!' And 'The New York Times,' meanwhile, is writing about surfing, and -- and I’m sitting there and going like, 'You know what? I’m not going to talk about surfing, I’m going to talk about cannibalism, because that f***s me up.”
CARR: "Just a sec, time out. Before you ever went there, we’ve had reporters there reporting on genocide after genocide. Just because you put on a f***ing safari helmet and looked at some poop doesn’t give you the right to insult what we do. So continue. Continue."
