Ex-BuzzFeed employee: Some at BuzzFeed 'openly wish someone will assassinate Trump'

Former BuzzFeed employee Tim “Treadstone” Gionet, a.k.a. @BakedAlaska, accused BuzzFeed employees of not only treating him “unfairly” when he “came out as a Trump supporter,” but that some at the company “openly wish someone will assassinate” President Trump:

His tweet came in response to BuzzFeed editor-in-chief Ben Smith’s interview with Tucker Carlson where he said “people are very respectable to the conservatives on our staff”:

Gionet sent screenshots allegedly of BuzzFeed’s internal Slack channel to reporter Cassandra Fairbanks to back up his accusation:
