BuzzFeed is unique, however, for assigning a journalist to cover the intersection between Trump and the news media, it added.

“We tried to look at the landscape to see what we could add,” Katherine Miller, a top editor at BuzzFeed, told Politico. "Over the last three months, there has been a very intense conversation about politics and media and how coverage is being done.”

Miller said Perlberg would examine Trump’s relationship with Google and Twitter, as well as what compromises media outlets are willing to make for the president.

Perlberg will also track the rise of powerful right-wing outlets, she continued, and “the revival of the TV news business.”

BuzzFeed hopes to break news on Trump’s media consumption habits, Miller added, and how his team secures favorable coverage for the president.

“This is not an administration that is going to be particularly interested in the norms of how things are done,” Miller said.

Trump has repeatedly feuded with the media, accusing both news outlets and individual reporters of biased and dishonest coverage about him.

Trump blasted BuzzFeed as “a failing pile of garbage” earlier this month after it published an unverified dossier alleging Russia’s government has compromising information about him.

BuzzFeed published the controversial document, which has not been corroborated, before Trump’s inauguration.
