Buzzfeed has said they are getting into podcasting to “connect with our audience in as many ways as we can.” “Jenna Weiss-Berman Buzzfeeds director of audio wrote, “Podcasting gives us a chance to bring our storytelling to life in a medium that is new and fresh to us. By hosting these sound-rich talk shows, our writers have had the opportunity to develop their distinct voices, explore topics in real depth, and engage with their audiences in new ways.”
BuzzFeed is the social news and entertainment company. BuzzFeed is redefining online advertising with its social, content-driven publishing technology.
