If you look in other threads with major breaking news from well-established publications, there is always a chorus of "wait for other sources." But here with Buzzfeed, the general position is that....Buzzfeed is enough.
I hope Buzzfeed's piece is corroborated as well, but I find this blind faith in Buzzfeed is a little puzzling, honestly.
Do you really think I'm talking about an opinion piece? Are you serious?

Edit: wait I started from this page and assumed you were conflating editorial voice and reporting. In context I still have no idea where this came from.
I don't think they've commented on it but it's telling that basically the entire cast and crew from Firefly and Chuck stopped following him on Twitter a long time ago.
This is completely unrelated to this (though interesting nonetheless).
Good, fuck her and her corrupt bullshit. Those lives are on your conscience you inhuman piece of shit
Other than the now-debunked NYT headline "Investigating Donald Trump, F.B.I. Sees No Clear Link to Russia," what investigative reporting by AP/NYT are you referring to where this community responded by calling their reporting trash...?
Oliver Darcy thinks he's back at The Blaze.
tbh I mostly remember that with McClatchy's Prague reports, which had very vague 2nd hand+ sourcing. I think folks tend to trust WaPo/NYT bombshells. Buzzfeed's track record is pretty solid.
Meanwhile, Trump reconfirmed the story by threatening the family of one of the witnesses

There were great turnout numbers this past year, that's how it starts.
2/7 is when Cohen testifies before congress. Nobody outside of Mueller's office has any idea when his report will be finished, regardless of any reporting you may hear on the matter.
I mean she is inhuman, so she probably doesn't consider all those immigrant/migrant people to be of worth. So nothing is going to hit her conscience besides the fact she can serve jail time
The two reporters from Buzzfeed have made the rounds, and this morning on NPR they were guaranteeing the host 100% that they have more than just he/she said, it's not just the words of Cohen (they have actual sources), and even allege physical evidence (possibly email/ paper) and even more than the 2 mentionned sources but were not ready to go with these yet.
It's much more than clickbaity titles ... It would potentially be career ending if not criminal to make these allegations, specially when they know the Dems in Congress will obviously look into it.
I think this site (Era) has the same problem with those sources, failing to differentiate between the editorial side and the investigative journalist side. These aren't the same people publishing the articles. Most mainstream news has downright bad punditry, but punditry sells.
There is also the dubious practice of sourcing "insider scoops" directly from the likes of Giuliani or Kushner or Trump himself, which is obviously high level access that any reporter would covet, but has the pitfall of this admin being very, very loose with truth.
SHS: "These latest allegations are ridiculous. Obviously the President was encouraging Americans to watch the hit film 'Father-in-Law', itself a masterpiece of modern cinema."
Trump supporters are not very far away from having to admit, "Evil is good, and I never wanted to be a good person, or go to heaven, because if God says good is good, he's wrong. Evil is good. I'd beat up Jesus right now if he said evil is bad, because he's wrong too, we all know evil is good."
There are many reasons that not everyone gets out to vote in the U.S. Not to mention the difference in scale. How many people are in Canada? Just under 40 mil? Just Texas has about 30 mil. There are so many other variables at play in a place as massive as the U.S. Not saying that more couldn't get out and vote and that there isn't apathy towards the entire process. But it's not fair to just say "what's wrong with people".
The criticism of the NYT crosses multiple threads and spans more than one reporter, regardless of the story. The bigger the publication, the more things they're gonna get wrong probably.
But my point was using awards to measure the credibility of the publication. Buzzfeed apparently hasn't even won a Pulitzer yet, but the fact that they were even nominated is apparently enough. It's just this defensiveness of Buzzfeed, of all places, that I'm a little taken aback about.
Are you folks telling me one of authors of the buzzfeed article does not have a checkered past ?
Of course it is! It's clearly the most pertinent of the two stories...
Exactly. Now they need to investigate Pence and his role. Expose his lies about what he knew about Flynn when he led the transition team. Dig up more on Pence.
The child separations issue has pissed me off more than anything else this piece of shit administration has done, and I'm proud that my senator has been fighting it from day one and hasn't stopped.
The fact that they considered deporting children without their parents is some of the most vile, evil shit I've read in a long time. I'll fucking never forgive republicans for this.
Imagine finding out about one of the biggest scandals in American political history and THIS is the route you decide to take. I can't imagine being that much of a hack and failure.
You say "Buzzfeed, of all places" like they haven't been doing great investigative reporting for years.
I don't understand. Are you saying you can overlook one of the authors checkered past because this needs to be true ?
I think you can easily talk about the author and then corroborate if the story is true independently which no news org has done yet . If they do find corroboration then you can shift focus. Right now it's one outlet uncorroborated. This is a high exposure story, you want to be REALLY sure you hedge your bets that it's definitely true

One of the authors was a fuckup in the Bush era but appears to have turned around - all the problematic shit happened over a decade ago and since then he's won numerous awards for his work. The other author hasn't done anything but win a Pulitzer in 2016 for investigative reporting.
This is THE story which ends the presidency of the President of the United States for Trump and has one news outlet only. You bet your ass people want to be absolutely sure it's true . You get this point right ?
What game are you trying to play at here? It's very transparent
Yup.
"Buzzfeed news" is (i'm so sorry) "new school" reporting/news outlet, the old school is taking some shots. CYA if this turns out to be bullshot, "balanced" if its right, in reality it's SALT.
Look at my post above yours. This is not just another trump story
