It's crazy but Buzzfeed has actually improved some of its reporting. They have an actual "reporting team" now that do real investigative work and not just listicles. I know that's almost impossible to believe. But they've impressed me with a few articles recently and I was really surprised!

Edit- see this article about how they are hiring actual reporters:

Even so, I still would rather read someone else. Just because Huffington Post might be considered legitimate now doesn't erase the fact that they started by not paying anyone (or paying then with "exposure" instead of read money).
