If you were to compare BuzzFeed to a dirty motel that you’re too scared to look at what’s on the bedspread with a black light, you’d be correct:
Well then. Bed bugs detected at BuzzFeed NYC HQ. Fumigation happening tomorrow, employees asked to WFH "out of abundance of caution"

But we must credit BuzzFeed’s own Steven Perlberg for reporting on his own filthy work conditions:
I'm the media reporter!

More reporting from inside the office:
SCOOP: the BuzzFeed bedbugs were detected on the 14th floor, a source still in the building tells me #bugsfeed

I regret googling "can bed bugs live in computers?"
