Michael Leidig Wikipedia Version II Shows Later Page More Heavily Centred On BuzzFeed Allegations

This archived screenshot preserves a later version of the Michael Leidig Wikipedia page, believed to reflect changes made after or around the BuzzFeed/CEN dispute. Unlike the fuller earlier version, this page gives greater prominence to the BuzzFeed allegations, the “King of Bullsh*t News” article, the libel case and the dismissal of the claim, while presenting less of the wider career context. The item is significant because email comments in the wider evidence chain suggest BuzzFeed figures or people connected to the dispute may have been aware of, interested in, or involved with edits to the page. It matters because the screenshot helps show how BuzzFeed’s allegations may have travelled beyond the original article into secondary reference material, shaping the public record in a way that could affect journalists, readers, researchers and search engines long after the original dispute.
