Facebook News Ranking Makes A Mockery of Journalism
Algorithms and Ranking News Based On Popularity Is Not Healthy for Consumers Facebook announced today their plans to change the ranking of news stories to prioritize them based on trustworthy value of the publisher. As a journalist that works hard on providing accurate news on the Web, I can see from a distance the problems and issues that will take place with this new concept. The last presidential election was heavily influenced by advertising misinformation on Facebook. That will only increase with these new plans. In reality, journalism is not a popularity contest with the outlet that has the most

Facebook Plans to Start Using a Paywall for News Publishers starting in October

Campbell Brown is Facebook's head of news partnerships, and recently spoke at Digital Publishing Innovation Summit in New York. The Street reported: "One of the things we heard in our initial meetings from many newspapers and digital publishers is that 'we want a subscription product -- we want to be able to see a paywall in Facebook.'" - Campbell Brown The elephant in the room that no one wants to talk about is how well paywalls do outside
YouTube has Not Made a Profit, but Musicians Want More Money from the Streaming Music Service
YouTube is in hot water over their streaming music service with musicians looking to obtain more money for their content. Personally, I also want YouTube to start paying more for content. YouTube does provide a free server to upload data for their users. This is one of the many tradeoffs that major media outlets overlook when covering this debate. Another tradeoff is the search engine connected to the content. As a media producer that runs my own website, I completely understand the cost in providing server space for millions of users. That cost should be far more transparent. YouTube
