BuzzFeed Facing Lawsuit Over Report On Trump’s Alleged Golden Shower Party
Lawyers for a Russian tech mogul suing online news site BuzzFeed for defamation will seek within the next two weeks to take sworn testimony from its editor and several reporters.
The suit stems from BuzzFeed’s decision to become the first news operation to post online a former British spy’s dossier about Russia’s alleged scheme to help Donald Trump win the presidency last fall.
A federal judge in Miami on Monday rejected BuzzFeed’s bid to move the case to New York. In a phone interview Tuesday, attorney Val Gurvits, representing a Russian web hosting company and its owner who were named in the dossier, said he would take steps to obtain depositions from BuzzFeed employees.

BuzzFeed redacted only one name from the dossier that night, on page 34. By doing so it effectively edited the document, suggested Gurvits, raising the question of why “others don’t deserve that same protection.”
