Joel and Benji Madden's livestreaming platform, Veeps, has reportedly laid off staff at several prominent music publications. These outlets include Alternative Press, BrooklynVegan, Revolver, and Goldmine. The news has drawn significant criticism from fans, musicians, and journalists alike. Many view this as a betrayal to the independent music journalism scene that once supported the Madden brothers' band, Good Charlotte. As of now, no official statement has been released by the Madden brothers, Veeps, or Live Nation regarding the reported layoffs.
