BuzzFfeed Internal List Of CEN-Linked BuzzFeed Stories

Spreadsheet disclosed in the BuzzFeed litigation showing a list of BuzzFeed article titles and URLs identified as CEN-linked or CEN-originated examples, including “This Is What Happens When You Leave The Hot Tap Running All Winter” and “The Unluckiest Man In The World Set His College On Fire With A Fireworks Marble”. The document is used in the book as evidence that BuzzFeed was internally compiling examples of CEN material used on its own site before publishing its attack on CEN, while still claiming that it was no longer a CEN client and that it was sometimes impossible to verify whether CEN had circulated a particular story. It is relevant to the question of client status, continuing receipt and use of CEN material, attribution, payment, and BuzzFeed’s knowledge of the connection between CEN copy, CEN picture credits and BuzzFeed’s own published output.
