Buzzfeed Hit With Defamation Lawsuit
- The Hollywood Reporter, Tuesday, January 26, 2016 4:27 PM
Buzzfeed has been sued for defamation by journalist Michael Leidig and the viral news agency Central European News. The lawsuit, which seeks more than $11 million, stems from an Aug. 24 article titled, "The King of Bullsh*t News" and subtitled "How a small British news agency and its founder fill your Facebook feed with stories that are wonderful, wacky — and often wrong," according to The Hollywood Reporter.
