Moira DoneganHOST
This is, in fact, famously what Milo was doing.
Moira DoneganHOST
And we're going to get into that in a little bit when we get to the email leak that BuzzFeed News did where they found out, you know, where Milo was getting his story ideas from.
Moira DoneganHOST
But also, I want to first talk about the other thing that happened right as Milo joined Breitbart in 2014, which is Gamergate.
Moira DoneganHOST
Adrian, could you, like, just very quickly gloss Gamergate for us?
Craig SilvermanGUEST
So, you know, I used to work at ProPublica.
Craig SilvermanGUEST
I worked at BuzzFeed News before that.
Craig SilvermanGUEST
I spent, you know, a long time as a freelancer and contractor writing for different places.
Craig SilvermanGUEST
And I pulled in that archive of things that I'd already published.
Kashmir HillGUEST
There's other face-recognizing companies, and so I think the tech giants are starting to think, "Maybe this is something that is mainstream enough for us to play in these waters." Certainly, Meta is, is, is thinking that internally.
Joseph CoxHOST
internally.Obviously, as you say, Clearview is for cops, although they have flirted a little bit with private corporate customers as well, I think f- some reporting from BuzzFeed News at the time.
Joseph CoxHOST
PimEyes, very different in that, as you say, it is a website that anybody can just log on and use.
Joseph CoxHOST
Do you sort of remember your reaction to seeing PimEyes for the first time? 'Cause when that came out, I was kind of blown away, like, "Oh, okay.
Garrett MorelandHOST

Payton MorelandHOST
When we think about extreme wealth and success in this country, America, we usually think about the people who climbed the ladder to the top.
Payton MorelandHOST
After all, some of the world's biggest companies are synonymous with their founders.
Ben FergusonHOST
There was payouts involved and everything else.
Ben FergusonHOST
But the, the, the liberal media are on a losing streak with the extremely dubious BuzzFeed News story and then false attacks on Catholic high school students at the Lincoln Memorial.
Ben FergusonHOST
In both cases, the liberal media has refused to take responsibility and issue retractions, acting detached in stories where they played central roles in advancing narratives that turned out to be weapons-grade fake news.
Ben FergusonHOST
Between Saturday morning and Sunday night, CNN, MSNBC spent thir- 53 minutes and 20 seconds on the fallout from the confrontation between the Covington High School students in Washington for the March For Life, a Native American veteran named Nathan Phillips, and the Black Isra- Israelites.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Their inaction speaks volumes.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Our article today is from BuzzFeed News and it is part of our FinCEN files investigation.
Bobby CapucciHOST
This will be part four of the FinCEN files in regards to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Headline, Congress is close to ending anonymous shell companies.
6 MINS LATER
Bobby CapucciHOST
The question is, will they? Or will they continue to let people like Jeffrey Epstein skate the system and launder money and use those laundered funds to facilitate their crimes.
Bobby CapucciHOST
There is a stark choice here, folks, and Congress needs to do the right thing.
Bobby CapucciHOST
The final push comes as BuzzFeed News and the International Consortium of Investigated Journalists in the Finson Files investigation have exposed the vast amounts of dirty money washing through the U.S. economy and how shell companies help foster that flow.
Bobby CapucciHOST
And, you know, you would think, right, you hear shell companies and you're thinking criminals.
Katie RingHOST
Gypsy told him her mother had a saying, "Keep your enemies close." Outside, the case became an industry.
Katie RingHOST
A 2016 investigation by BuzzFeed News laid out the whole story first, built on a year of reporting and Gypsy's own medical records.
Katie RingHOST
Then came an HBO documentary in 2017, where her family spoke on camera for the first time.
Katie RingHOST
That was followed by a Hulu drama series in 2019 with famous actors playing all of them.
Bobby CapucciHOST
The Harvard psychology professor, Steven Pinker, has vociferously denied having been part of the Epstein circle.
Bobby CapucciHOST
I could never stand the guy and always tried to keep my distance, he told BuzzFeed News.
Bobby CapucciHOST
As far as I know, as of this writing, the only scientist to apologize for his closeness to Epstein is the biologist George Church, who also teaches at Harvard.
Bobby CapucciHOST
There should have been more conversations about, should we be doing this? Should we be helping this guy? He told the health news website, Stat.
Owen MichaelHOST
There are conflicting reports as to where Clark posted the images first, but Utica police say he posted them to Discord before the others.
Owen MichaelHOST
BuzzFeed News also reports Clark was posting stories to his Instagram as he was being held at gunpoint by police.
Owen MichaelHOST
That's quite a scene.
Owen MichaelHOST
Clark's Instagram account has since been removed by the company.
Jon SchleussGUEST
yeah, clickbait is also a real thing.
Jon SchleussGUEST
I mean, BuzzFeed News, you know, kind of like... was the big driver of that current era of clickbait.
Jon SchleussGUEST
But I think it's kind of fallen off a bit, hopefully in that kind of like peak.
Jon SchleussGUEST
I don't know what the peak was like 10 years ago, five, six, seven or eight years
