Your comment might have been correct a few years ago, but these days BuzzFeed News is actually a source of excellent journalism. Many of the best news articles I've read in the past few months came from BuzzFeed News.
- et-al 10y agoYeah, think of how Vice transitioned from a magazine for art school kids to a broader journalism company covering topics more traditional agencies might've shyed away from.
- mpclark 10y agoUp to a point. They've added some great news coverage, but they still also do the rubbish they always did. There are effectively two Buzzfeeds, not a single reformed entity that is now a credible source.
- eridius 10y agoThere is in fact 2 BuzzFeeds. The clickbait stuff is under the banner of BuzzFeed. The news articles are under the banner of BuzzFeed News. And the former pays for the latter, so I find it hard to fault them for it.
