NEW YORK — Vice has suspended two top executives after a New York Times report on sexual misconduct at the digital media company. The Times had reported in late December that it found four settlements involving allegations of sexual harassment or defamation against Vice employees, including Creighton. The newspaper talked with more than two dozen women who say they experienced or witnessed sexual misconduct, including groping and forced kisses. Vice Media co-founders Shane Smith and Suroosh Alvi have apologized for the “boy’s club” culture . The Vice memo says her claims were found to lack merit at the time after a review by law firm, but a special committee of its board is looking at the matter now.
