News Media Critique- Buzzfeed News

Based on the seven yardsticks of journalism, all news articles are supposed to be newsworthy. A lot of Buzzfeed news articles though, are not.In fact, Buzzfeed does not even have a way to categorize they're different types of news on their news app. Technology news, celebrity news, and sports news are all jumbled together with breaking news and actual newsworthy topics. Because of this, they make it very unclear of what is newsworthy and un-newsworthy. Putting non-newsworthy with the newsworthy keeps people from focusing on the newsworthy and defies the seven yardsticks of journalism.
