      This is like iteration 28 of this same exact suggestion and it is as bad an idea for as many reasons now as it has been ever.

        Aside of all the reasons it's a terrible idea, I like how alljournalists think Facebook or its users will automatically respect a Journalist

          And that a Journalist would sweep in with their press cards and AP Style and automatically fix everything.

            Like did you read the working conditions of the last set of editors Facebook employed?

              You think your journalism job is shitty? Wait till it is in Facebook's basement conference room.

                And has the election not made abundantly clear that the avg Facebook user don't care what Journalists have to say?

                  Hi! *The problem is that a significant portion of American public doesn't trust journalists!* Being employed by Facebook doesn't fix this.

                    I believe in the power and responsibility of Journalism; I also know that I shouldn't assume everyone everywhere shares that belief.

                      What you are forgetting is that, for a significant portion of users, Facebook is working exactly how they want it to.

                        The problem is people

                          Stop pushing your readers to literally any other platform than your own. Do you really want to tell readers 'trust Facebook 1st, us 2nd'?

                            I don't understand why it is so hard to stop asking Facebook to do your job for you.

                              It is the job of journalism to explain its utility & trustworthiness to the public. Do that instead of complaining about FB. Please.
