Facebook & New York Times Partnership

 Companies are shrewd to utilize social media to their advantage.  It helps get a name out there, making the content of their information as both easily accessible as well as edifying as possible.  Therefore, it’s evident news organizations would benefit significantly, for social media promotes prevalence merely because of the uncomplicated distribution of content (essentially shared articles that entail little to no effort). 

One news company had it right; New York Times contracted a partnership to Facebook this May.  As if New York Times doesn’t already hold an illustrious title, they will further their business by appealing to those Facebook users that maybe not so much necessarily haven’t heard of NYT, but for those users that aren’t particularly fascinated with the news overall-in which when Facebook forces the viewing of posts concerned with news issues, they’ll be their primary news source.

New York Times once again fruitfully becomes one of the utmost, most prominent news corporations of today’s audience. 

I’m ready to see a change.  I have not a single complaint or negative utterance to say regarding NYT; I’m encouraging, rather, alternate businesses encompassing news related material and measures to follow in the Facebook engagement approach.  I’ve elucidated my standpoint regarding Facebook’s prospective impact on news--that it can be effectively delivered by means of timelines.  If Facebook chose to embody an array of news reporting, I’d hope that both its technical easiness as well as the societal precedence put on Facebook would lead to enhancing both comprehensive awareness of topics—as well as enhancing comprehensive research knowledge of valid news sources--as users would be introduced to a novel variety of news foundations that go beyond the customary.
