The social news giant is launching a dedicated app for BuzzFeed News to capitalize on its young, loyal following.
Though BuzzFeed was once known only as a source for fun, viral listicles, in recent years the site has increasingly focused on publishing hard-hitting, deeply reported stories, and today almost half of its 300 editorial staffers work on news. To give its news coverage a mobile home, the online media powerhouse on Thursday released the BuzzFeed News app. BuzzFeed News for iOS will offer straight news without the quizzes and listicles that pepper the flagship BuzzFeed app.
