News organizations have been a bit slow to catch on, but have finally begun advertising themselves on Facebook. An article on Poynter.com explains how media, such as The New York Times, America Broadcast Company, Chicago Tribune, and News Public Radio, are disseminating information to the younger generations.
Hooray! I tip my hat to whatever media is becoming involved with Facebook. With less and less young people reading the news, it has become harder to engage their attention and support. One of the quickest ways to receive news is to become a Facebook fan of some organization, and alerts are directly sent to you. So many people are "addicted" to Facebook, so what better way to receive news when people aren't directly going to news sites. The internet is constantly changing, thus allowing for different outlets to receive news. Facebook is becoming a one-way stop for personal and national news. Not only would you receive presidential information, but also who's in a new relationship!
