nytimes.com - After a flurry of criticism online, BuzzFeed on Friday reinstated two posts that had recently been removed from the site. Ben Smith, the editor in chief, said that he had overreacted when asking editors to delete them.
One of the posts that was taken down was critical of an advertising campaign for the cosmetics brand Dove, which advertises on the site. After Gawker reported on the item’s disappearance on Thursday, Mr. Smith posted a note from editors which suggested that it was removed because it did not fit BuzzFeed’s tone or editorial mission.
