Arguing to stimulate what it considers “professional journalism,” the platform brings together the tools of “partners” with which it shares political, social and economic approaches.
Brazil’s current network – Today (16) Facebook announced a partnership program and investments in Brazilian commercial press vehicles. The project aims to provide more news links within the platform, in addition to links already shared by vehicles and users. In addition, investments of $2.6 million are planned in the program, called “News Innovation Test”, in projects developed in partnership with news associations, which will last for three years. More information should be released in the coming days.
Under the pretext of promoting what it classifies as “professional journalism”, Facebook promises to “support” news organizations and boost journalistic coverage in Brazil. Among the “partners” announced by the social network are Jovim Pan, Estadao, or Antagonista, Revista Cruzoy, Ready Record, SBT, ReadyTV! , Revista Vega, among others. The list of partners excludes autonomous vehicles, particularly those that expand the voices of workers and social movements.

The world’s largest social network announces the project granting vehicle privileges in the vast majority of the so-called major media, about a year after the 2022 elections. If, on the one hand, the initiative can affect the quality and diversity of information distributed on the other hand, Its users see the initiative as aimed at helping reduce the amount of fake news circulating. says Claudia, Facebook’s Director of News Partnerships for Latin America, Gurfinkel.

This would not be the first time that Facebook has been expected to influence the political landscape of a country. In recent years, the social network has been “lowering” the reach of news outlets based on changes to its algorithm. On the other hand, I preferred users’ posts in groups and posts. “The change was aimed at strengthening relationships between users in order, according to the network itself, to increase user well-being and experience. Facebook aims to encourage people to interact with friends and family and spend less time consuming professional information in a negative way, as research has indicated it is detrimental to mental health” As stated in a report published today in the Wall Street Journal.
The company was warned that the change had the opposite effect, documents show. It has turned the Facebook platform into a place of hate,” the report adds. Among the side effects are the massive dissemination of fake news, the devaluation of accurate information, the emergence of a structure of political influencers backed by hate machines (cabinets), and the severe fragmentation of groups into “ideological bubbles.”
