No, hilariously Buzzfeed News was top tier investigative journalism, and at their best was as good as anything done by NYT or WaPo.
The business model seemed to be "what if we have truly great investigative journalism, funded by clickbait listicales that we, inexplicablly, use the same brand for".
It's easy to mock the branding decisions they made (and not entirely unfair) but it's still a loss to the internet to see them go.
