Facebook announced this week they will not allow @couriernewsroom, including our 6 state-based sites staffed by dozens of local journalists, in the news tab. #6765409de840">https://www.forbes.com/sites/robpegoraro/2020/08/13/no-facebook-isnt-getting-political-clickbait-out-of-its-news-tab/ #6765409de840">https://www.forbes.com/sites/rob...

We& #39;re being penalized for being transparent about our majority investor, the non-profit @ACRONYM, while right-wing media companies continue to hide their ownership and funders - and are given preferential treatment by Facebook

Facebook has been a death knell for local journalism for years and to discriminate intentionally against a new model that seeks to amplify the work of local journalists across the US is incredibly dispiriting.

Who remains in Facebook& #39;s News tab? Far right sites that intentionally spread misinfo like Breitbart and The Daily Caller. That& #39;s not only dispiriting, it& #39;s incredibly dangerous.

more on just how discriminatory this is for progressive news orgs like ours from @robpegoraro below
