BuzzFeed CEO Jonah Peretti sits down with Brian Stelter to discuss the "bright future" he sees for the company, despite recent layoffs and other changes. He describes the internet as a "flaming dumpster fire" but also a source of "joy and truth," and says companies like BuzzFeed have to keep "fighting to make a great internet." Stelter also asks about the unionization drive at BuzzFeed News and Peretti's commitment to the news division.
