It's really funny. People say Buzzfeed? And I'm like, who do you think is making money right now, our national newspaper or Buzzfeed? Who do you think is hiring instead of being forced to let go of high quality journalists, our national newspaper or Buzzfeed?
Look beyond the brand and into the details and the journalist. Buzzfeed News is legit. Unlike a lot of media sources, they've found a way to be profitable and output quality articles.
One of the things he said is that internally, Buzzfeed is actually three different groups.
One of them is a team of straight-up, legitimate investigative reports.
That's why every once in a while Buzzfeed break a big story and everyone sits around saying "Buzzfeed?"
