Some color on Facebook hiring human editors for upcoming news tab: Hiring is being led by a Pulitzer Prize–winning former editor from WashPo. FB hoping to avoid the Trending Topics fiasco this time around. Calling them "news curators" instead of editors. https://t.co/sIoh2lmKOD

News Tab is part of the company’s effort to highlight real-time journalism and news. It will exist outside of the News Feed, Facebook’s never-ending stream of status updates and friend requests. https://t.co/m01xNOXdVR

story one: fb dips toe back in the water of human curation of news stories
but fearing the trending debacle of 2016, does so in a very small, deliberate way (seasoned Journos, only a handful, in “news tab” only)https://t.co/VNIxCW0VCM
A NEW Facebook News Tab test for 200,000 users will begin in October, with a rollout to all U.S. users early next year... https://t.co/OBaP45Z34g

I am not a media company. I merely distribute news to the masses and employ journalists to sort through and highlight the news of the day. https://t.co/78oZuJx30V

I’ll bet that whichever outlet is willing to take the least amount of money will be highlighted the most...just like an airport terminal...
