Buzzfeed has a very well-established reputation for bias and shoddy journalistic practices - moreso than other news outlets.

>"well-established reputation for bias and shoddy journalistic practices - moreso than other news outlets."

How about a citation for that assertion? Reputation among whom?

Buzzfeed News is rated in the category "Most Reliable for News" and "Reliable for news, but high in analysis / opinion content" similar to WSJ and, CNN, and FT.

No, not really:

https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/washington-post/

I left CNN out because they are nearly as bad as Fox these days

Apparently the truth hurts too much. My original comment was downvoted and flagged. lol.

Thanks for the links, I'll keep these around next time I have to bring this up again.

It's kind of a bad attitude to flag a comment that one does not like...

But still have a nice Day.

I wouldn't say so, maybe in right wing circles - the perception of it is a left-leaning site or just a silly top-ten list site, but my hack friends say that they actually make pretty good and honest content. Obviously nobody is perfect.
