BuzzFeed
We enter the 2020’s stronger and more diversified than ever. But we have lots of industry-defining, career-defining work ahead of us to achieve our ambitions.
Let’s make our media network bigger and our content flywheel stronger so we can flood the Internet with joy and truth.
Let’s extend our lead in editorial curation for retail and shopping, expand this work into every industry through strategic partnerships, and get the attribution we deserve for the value we create.
Let’s help build the future of TV through innovative marketing as well as groundbreaking new formats for shows produced in our studio.
Let’s pioneer “paid social” and fix the social web with better experiences for our audience.
And let’s break the biggest news stories, sharing what we know with our audience as a service to them and society, while never demanding their blind trust.
Working alongside so many talented BuzzFeeders gives me complete confidence we will be able to do all these things and more. We are fighting for truth and joy, in a world where both are under threat, and doing our part to fix the Internet. We are creating content that inspires hundreds of millions of people, helping them discover new products, experiences, and communities. We are having a bigger impact on culture and people’s lives than ever before, with a reach and centrality surpassing media companies that have existed for decades longer than us. I’m excited for the coming year and what we will build together.
Thank you and Happy New Year,
Jonah
