Anyone know what happened to Tom from Buzzfeed news?
For those who are unfamiliar, he was the guy who contacted WSO and instigated a much more heavy censorship regime on the site...only the funny thing is, a few months after that his company (Buzzfeed News) shut down. Any clue what he's up to now?
He left Buzzfeed in October 2023.
"Former journalist specialising in financial investigations. Now working as a researcher in the hedge fund industry helping portfolio managers research companies in depth."

How in the world does that transition happen??
Probably will try to stir shit up at small publicly traded companies and create a short opportunity for the fund
Probably used this website which he trashed publicly to prep
From Buzzfeed to HF. Never imagined these 2 in the same sentence
When you realize how flexible the definition of HF is and note that his title is "qualitative analyst" and has no fund listed, it's much less impressive.
Did he ever publish the article? I remember all the threads about the moderation but don't remember reading the actual article
He said he was going to publish an article, but I never saw it either.
Here is the original WSO thread:
I (and WSO) Need Your Help | Wall Street Oasis
Corporate journalists deserve no respect or benefit of the doubt. It was never a serious story he had any intention of putting together IMO, it was just some BS framing trying to pressure WSO to cave to censorship and toe the typical corporate-approved lines. In a way it worked, but not to the degree I worried it would.
He is a clown for harassing a small business that clearly isn't a racist site like he claimed.
I would assume a huge chunk of the userbase here are minorities. I am, and so are ~7 out of the 13 or so people I've met from here in person.
Clearly it isn't a club of white supremacists lol.
Aut ea corporis et facere. Error quod reprehenderit corrupti. Ea deserunt dolore est repellat ut. Eos nam facilis et expedita impedit ipsa. In non non enim id. Maxime ex sed ut illo iste.
