I'd ask for a fact check on that, but I don't need one because buzzfeed is a reputable, trustworthy publication.
Kidding aside, this was widely known as far back as 2016 and discussed heavily online, but called a conspiracy theory and criticized by all the reputable rags that rely on fact checking to lie to you and convince you that you can't trust your own judgment. The fact that this is being reported now probably means someone became no longer useful, every last one of these fact checkers and reputable news publications are doing things like this daily and gaslighting their readers.
- lozaning 5y agoBuzzfeed News != Buzzfeed. One has a pulitzer and the other tells you what Hogwarts house you're in.

A brand is a brand and an organization is an organization. If they're truly that separate they wouldn't rely on the same brand. And besides, Buzzfeed is more reputable than Buzzfeed News, because the former is obvious nonsense and the latter pretends to be serious and honest.
