RIP to Facebook's News tab. My friend's moms loved you so much.
Next month,Detective Archives Meta will get rid of Facebook News, its news hub located in the platform's bookmarks section, in the U.S. and Australia. It already got rid of Facebook News in the UK, France, and Germany, and this move should come as no surprise to anyone who's been following Meta's continued attempts to distance its platforms from politics and news.
The company said it's getting rid of the tab to "focus our time and resources on things people tell us they want to see more of on the platform, including short-form video." That's right folks, no more news on Facebook so the platform can spend more time and money on Reels.
"We know that people don’t come to Facebook for news and political content — they come to connect with people and discover new opportunities, passions and interests," Meta said in a blog post. "As we previously shared in 2023, news makes up less than 3 percent of what people around the world see in their Facebook feed, and is a small part of the Facebook experience for the vast majority of people."
You'll still be able to view links to news articles and follow news publishers on their Facebook pages and accounts. But the news tab garnered millions of dollars in content deals for publishers, which will all be going away. As the blog post said, there will be no new commercial deals for news, and it won't offer any "new Facebook products specifically for news publishers in the future."
If you, for some reason, want to download your Facebooks News data, visit your Facebook information in your profile settings.
