Facebook is introducing a feature for UK news publishers

 

In January 2021, a new feature will be rolled out by Facebook in the UK. This is interesting for news publishers since the firm is planning to pay them for some articles. It is going to prioritise original reporting. As such, it will focus on content that is not already available on its platform. Several outlets, such as Hearst (Cosmopolitan, Elle, Esquire), the Guardian Media group and JPI Media have signed up for this deal. Facebook is expecting more publishers to join after the launch.
