Jonah Peretti BuzzFeed

Jonah Peretti The Huffington Post

Jonah co-founded The Huffington Post together with Kenneth Lerer, Andrew Breitbart, and Arianna Huffington in 2005. He left The Huffington Post in 2011 after it was bought by AOL for $315 million.

In 2005, Jonah hosted the Contagious Media Showdown at Eyebeam in New York City, where he worked as director of the R&D Lab from 2001 until 2006. During the process, Jonah developed the concept of the “Bored-at-Work Network”, which he supposes to be larger than some major television network audiences.

Jonah founded the “Internet popularity contest” site BuzzFeed in November 2006. After leaving The Huffington Post, Jonah started working at BuzzFeed full-time. While originally known for its mix of internet memes and lists, the site was the first to break the news that John McCain would endorse Mitt Romney in the 2012 Republican Primary.

The site continued to grow afterward, raising over $35 million in funding from investors the next year. In August 2014, the site raised another $50 million from the venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, more than doubling its previous rounds of funding. The site was valued at $850 million by Andreessen Horowitz.

In 2019, Jonah declared that BuzzFeed would be cutting its overall workforce by 15 percent. He said he wanted to reduce costs without resorting to additional fundraising. Its remaining workforce then officially unionized, their first successful flight being over laid-off staffers getting their earned paid time off.

In 2021 at a virtual company meeting, Jonah, as BuzzFeed’s chief executive, fired 47 employees at Huffington Post in a controversial manner. Employees were given a password to enter the meeting “spr!ngisH3r3,” a variation on the phrase “spring is here.” The staff members were then informed that if they did not receive an email by 1 p.m., their jobs were safe.

The website Defector first reported on the password and other details of the meeting, which was confirmed by two people who attended the meeting and spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe internal discussions. A BuzzFeed spokesman told The New York Times that the company regretted the password’s tone.

The HuffPost Union, which is affiliated with the Writers Guild of America East, said in a statement that the layoffs had affected 33 of its members, nearly a third of the local union. “We are devastated and infuriated, particularly after an exhausting year of covering a pandemic and working from home,” the union said in a statement.
