I wrote this this morning to spare everyone a lengthy tweet thread. I am so bloody proud of my colleagues. If my work has been useful to you please RT. I've worked full-time as a reporter for seven years and this is my website: ginarushton.com
It’s tough to lose my job during a pandemic, but I’m truly gutted that BuzzFeed won’t be covering Aussie news for an Aussie audience after next week.
So sad to hear Buzzfeed Australia's news arm is being closed. The team's reporting on refugees and women's health was (and I hope will continue to be elsewhere) bloody excellent and needed. smh.com.au/business/compa…
i think i am cursed today. first slack breaks, then facebook stops me from uploading videos, now premiere is joining the party
how long til "slack is down" trends on twitter do we reckon?
ugh slack is down, as if i needed more chaos in my morning
robert pattinson pasta story has been the only thing on my mind for the past 30 minutes and the only thing that will be on my mind for the next 30 hours

Best wishes to everyone at Buzz Feed Oz going forward. And also this piece from @lanesainty is still one of the best articles on the interwebs. buzzfeed.com/lanesainty/15-…
One Peter Dutton sad to see me go 😂
@HannahD15 Hate that this happened to you and the team. You were one of the first to reach out to me, leading to genuine connections with so many amazing Aussies. I’m confident new doors will open for you and in the end, it will have all been for your greater good.
@HannahD15 Now is not the time to let standards drop Hannah.
I wrote this this morning to spare everyone a lengthy tweet thread. I am so bloody proud of my colleagues. If my work has been useful to you please RT. I've worked full-time as a reporter for seven years and this is my website: ginarushton.com
I never understood the sneering about listicles tbh. There's a reason they get more traffic: people actually understand issues better when they're simply broken down. Refusing to make things clear for your readers does not make you a great journalist or publisher.
#BREAKING: Australia's jobless rate has jumped to 6.2 per cent in April, seasonally adjusted, with 594,300 jobs lost last month
Anyway, it should be a crime to let people go when the pub is banned. I hate the roni!
Everyone else is already saying nice things about my colleagues, and I don’t want to overdo it in this thread. But shout-out to attention-averse @lanesainty — an incredible editor, manager, and a great, great journalist. Her judgment and determination got us through the past year
I hope the model — journalism on subjects that others neglect but that matter to young people, and the collective way our team worked — can flourish elsewhere in the Australian media, post-BuzzFeed. I hope that the media is more than just a collection of personal brands.
We wouldn’t have been able to hit as hard as we did without being a tight-knit team. I’m simply a sook for teamwork, and collabs with Lane, Gina and Cam have been my fave memories. And every story is a collab with copy king @holmesjourno. You’ve helped this lawyer lighten up.
I’ve been so proud to work at the underdog where we had to fight for scoops and stories. I’ve almost learned to love spelling out “BuzzFeed” for people who don’t know what I’m talking about. It meant we had to be more thoughtful, more aggressive, and better listeners.
Telling refugees’ stories over the last year has been hard for many reasons, but I’m pleased the audience has been on board w/ with the unique way we’ve done it. There are still so many stories, and hope I’ll be able to tell them elsewhere (DM me with jobs/opportunities pls!!!)
Over the past two years, @marnicordell, @lanesainty, @ginarush and others have taught me that it doesn’t always mean focusing on the powerful. Listening to the powerless is what we do at BF Oz.
I started at @buzzfeedoznews with an accountability obsession. I really believe in the media’s role as the fourth estate. It’s essential to democracy.
It’s tough to lose my job during a pandemic, but I’m truly gutted that BuzzFeed won’t be covering Aussie news for an Aussie audience after next week.
