Yes, it technically is. They started it up in like 2015 and made a big deal of hiring "celebrity" journos, so that the galaxy brains on reddit could screech "Noooo, ur just misinformed, it's a completely separate organization, it's a legitimate journalistic outlet, they just share the name!"

And then their first big story was... Cheeto Hitler's supposed pee pee tapes. Lmao.

Yes the galaxy brains who decide that BuzzFeed is a useful source while ZeroHedge has to be regarded as false on its face. I left a comment on wikipedia about this, and now I am banned.

Like how RT America shut down over 1 year ago and fired literally everyone?

At least RT's news is truthful some of the time.
