Assignment X - Who cares if it's true?

Note: I wholeheartedly apologize for turning in this late.

Buzzfeed decided to edit their posts before publishing their stories, so they don't have to correct anything after the fact. This is, so their hoaxes feel much more valid than they seem.

The primary concern that media veterans have with BuzzFeed's style is that people would favor quantity and speed over quality and truth.

Unlike the Onion which is a parody of journaling and Snopes which goes more in-depth about rumors and false stories, Buzzfeed just reports the story without thought. Almost as if they just saw the title of the story and they talk about it. If they would stop and think, and they update the story as time goes on, they wouldn't be that bad.

I don't trust Buzzfeed because it just seems unprofessional to talk about news that they don't have the full story for.
