Since when is BuzzFeed considered to be an actual, reputable news source? Why did a "news" story from a list website get so much attention? Why is a cracked.com tier website being treated as real news reporting?

Because people are retarded. That's the only answer you need.

>Since when is BuzzFeed considered to be an actual, reputable news source?

around the same time people accepted huff post as one

Because no-one cares about credibility when it is used to slander Trump and push the narrative that he's the devil.

Confirmation bias at its finest.

Who knows. CNN and WSJ are reporting it. It's fucking hilarious

Still, at least huffpo tries to give off the look of an actual news site, even if it's ridiculously biased trash. When you google BuzzFeed, one of the first things that comes up is "22 Of The Grossest Things People Have Done On An Airplane" with a picture of a dudes ass. It's literally not a legitimate news website, yet liberals are treating it as if it were one. Surely nobody is this dumb?

>present a "report" from CIA about such serious and scandalous allegations of the fucking President without ANY backing of truth
>get shat on
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. These imbeciles deserve it.

>It's literally not a legitimate news website, yet liberals are treating it as if it were one.

it's very popular, although very dumb.

from what I've seen it's mostly women that like it and they've caused the site to rise to a place that it doesn't deserve.

BuzzFeed is very popular with the braindead millenial crowd that can't get off their iPhone. These people all have untreated ADHD or some kind of other mental deficiency that keeps them coming back for the "relatable" (read: retarded) content.

le idiocracy movie

The Guardian got a Pulitzer... C'mon... MSM is cancer.

Like HuffPo it's a site made for women and emasculated males.

holy shit is that the actual layout?

a video maddox made about buzzfeed before he cucked himself.

why is that muslim woman making such a retarded face?

>Why is a Muslim acting retarded?
The answer you seek, within your question it lies, hmmm.

their articles.

>burger news
>writing an article about Noel

weird

>news
It's not a goddamn news source you fucking leaf

>People Are Cringing Over Trump's Adviser Saying The Inauguration Will Have "Soft Sensuality"
>People Are Cringing Over [thing]
Nice headline crafting.

>all of that shit

what is its purpose then. just random click bait?

Yes. It is literally a clickbait website. Look at the titles of the articles.

What he said. You were starting to see buzzfeed authors being invited onto or cited in 'reputable' mainstream news organizations or sources.

fpbp

Because There are around 65% of the american population under an IQ of 100 and all the retarded millenials in this area go to an entertainment news site to get their news.
It's just like the normies who are only using Internet via facebook.

Reading that watersports was circulating around the internet far before it ever appeared in Sup Forums

Around the same time voted for a reality tv clown to be President of the US.

WHAT THE FUCK IS EVEN HAPPENING RIGHT NOW
is this the power of globalisation?

>the two highest trafficked ""news"" sites are Buzzfeed & Washington post.
>Trump just had the founder of Alibaba, amazons chief competitor, at his tower pledging to create 1 million jobs
>Buzzfeed the next day at night publishes a manufactured, absurd story
>two angry progressive networks down in the same week, in between his marathon administration confirmations.

If this isn't pottery, I don't know what is

I think it's the absurdity of claims and piss what skyrocketed popularity of that story
Fakefeed was never a serious outlet

What you'll notice is that Fox News did not report on this and any conservatives in the media immediately shit on it for being ridiculous. This is purely a last ditch effort by the left to smear Trump. Actually, these documents were provided to a ton of journalists BEFORE the election ended. It was intended to help Hillary get elected but no media outlet was willing to risk their reputation reporting this nonsense. The fact they're pushing it now shows how desperate they've gotten.

The Guardian used to be a quality paper in the early 00s, sure it was liberal but remained mostly factual, now it is a batshit mix of disinformation mixed with opinion pieces.

>implying Alibaba's investment wouldn't have happened regardless of the president

>last ditch effort by the left

Every major news publication has had access to this for months and decided not to report it. This is actually a last ditch effort by a news organization run by children to have an impact, and they inadvertently committed suicide. From now on NY Times or WashPo will never report a story broken by Buzzfeed until its been verified by a legitimate organization
