“BuzzFeed is shutting down its Pulitzer Prize-winning news division as part of a 15% reduction in force across the company, BuzzFeed CEO and co-founder Jonah Peretti announced.

“”While layoffs are occurring across nearly every division, we’ve determined that the company can no longer continue to fund BuzzFeed News as a standalone organization,” Peretti wrote in the memo shared on Thursday via social media.

“Peretti said he made the decision to “overinvest in BuzzFeed News because I love their work and mission so much.”
