Why do people choose to post news or give their opinion of news on facebook? What makes it so reliable to where this is the social media app where people get their news from?
From a poll taken by , Pew Research Center, over a third (36%) of Americans say they view their news from facebook. Why so many people?
Because of the fact that when people regularly use a social media apps like Facbook, they will then tend to just find their news where they already are. The less likely ones are "related to the fact that fewer Americans report using them at all."
How does Facebook dish out their news though? From a statement from the creators of facebook, “The goal of News Feed is to deliver the right content to the right people at the right time so they don’t miss the stories that are important to them.” They are customizing all of our news feed to be just for us and what we want to know about. So yes you are getting news that might just pertain to what you are interested in , but that doesn't mean you still can't take time to look out to real reliable news outlets for bigger news.
These social media apps are so popular among our generation that we find ourselves becoming stuck only looking out to that platform for news. Branch out, do some digging for real news today!
