FAKE NEWS INVOLVING BuzzFeed
Top 10 Media “Collusion” Flops – NY Post
“The errant reporters and pundits — the ones who peddled the most outrageous falsehoods — want nothing more than to move on. But not so fast: There has to be some accountability for the biggest foul-ups.”
Disinformation Central: BuzzFeed CEO A Fake News Pioneer

ZeroHedge uncovers the heart of BuzzFeed’s penchant for “misinformation”.
“BuzzBleed”: A New Peak For Fake News
“I ask the press to take heed that their hysterical desire to destroy this President has gone too far” -Rudy Giuliani

“The other journalist from the Thursday night BuzzFeed report, Anthony Cormier, admitted to CNN’s “New Day” that he hasn’t actually seen the evidence in the case.”
