Buzzfeed’s Tahlia Pritchard named new Punkee editor
Junkee Media’s Gen Z title Punkee has appointed Tahlia Pritchard, senior writer at Buzzfeed Australia as the publisher’s new editor.
The publication, which first launched in April last year, had been on the hunt for a new editor – who would report to managing editor Tom Pitney – for more than a month.
Pritchard has been a senior writer at Buzzfeed for the last three years. She was also founder and editor of a Gen Y blog known as Bullsh!t.
Wow!
“more than 24m video viewres (sic) of recaps from The Bachelor, The Bachelorette and Married at First Sight.”
Given that the ABS estimates the Australian population at 24,913,628 a few seconds ago, I must be one of the 900,000+ who haven’t watched Buzzfeed’s recaps of these three pieces of content.
And that was just “the last month”. By the time the next month rolls around they should be well over the ABS population estimate.
Methinks someone doesn’t know the difference between viewers and views. Quite sad really.
It’s a typo. Well done for labouring the point that it’s meant to say ‘views’ not ‘viewres’.
Thank you, Fran and Son of ScoMo. We’ve fixed that typo.

@Son of ScoMo for such a pedant, you’d have think you would of noticed that it was Punkee’s recaps not BuzzFeed’s…
