> Science and journalism seem to be uniquely incompatible: Where journalism favors neat story arcs, science progresses jerkily, with false starts and misdirections in a long, uneven path to the truth—or at least to scientific consensus. The types of stories that reporters choose to pursue can also be a problem, says Peter Aldhous, a teacher of investigative reporting at UC Santa Cruz’s Science Communication Program, lecturer at Berkeley’s Graduate School of Journalism, and science reporter for BuzzFeed.

Seeing that someone from Buzz Feed has this kind of sober non-delusional perspective on journalism restores my faith in the idea that the internet might not have ruined reporting.

I used to avoid Buzz Feed like a disease, a cess pool of listicles and ADD style click bait but it seems they have a real goal of producing quality content.

Respect.
