Online media company BuzzFeed, best known for its list-based articles and quizzes, said Comcast‘s NBCUniversal had invested an additional $200 million in the company.

NBCUniversal last year invested roughly the same amount in BuzzFeed.

NBCUniversal parent Comcast (CMCSA) has pumped heavily into digital-native companies such as BuzzFeed and Vox Media, partly in an effort to better service existing advertisers.
