3. BuzzFeed News
Yup, we’re talking about BuzzFeed. From the makers of “17 GIFs of cats doing cat things you wouldn’t believe cats could do” – Sponsored by Cat Services, comes a compelling app about journalism and breaking news. BuzzFeed News app comes from the serious journalism arm that’s hell bent on reporting news and doing it well. They’d probably also love if we’d stop comparing them to “Lol cats” writers but I don’t think this is going to happen any time soon.
