Anybody ever noticed how the Facebook Trending bar virtually never has an antileftwing story? Whenever there is a political story its always some attack on conservatives or Republican foible. I don't think I've every seen a Democrat on a headline except rarely as praise like 'obama fistbumps' or something to that effect. Its on by default and there is no way to remove it either. Mighty curious as to how the 'algorithms' work. Seems to be some roundabout way to shift people who otherwise don't get news any other way. Am I mistaken? Go ahead and see if you can spot a conservative story on there.
No! ....... (Yathink?)
I never signed up for FaceBook.....I thought it was a passing trend....
Well, look who owns FB. Fortunately, I never click on their trending links. FB allows me a way to keep in contact with younger family members and that’s all I use it for.
“Trending” is based partly on what you input. Click in the upper right near the stories you dislike, and tell them why you dislike them. Same with ads and suggested pages.
It isn’t a conspiracy or rocket science.
What’s facebook?
The wife and I have decided to completely DUMP Facebook and any social media outlets. Too depressing and mostly a waste of time.
Who bothers with FB “trending?” I’m on FB but mostly for family and friends...and educating some about politics... ive never looked at “trending”
Everything facebook and google own is biased. When a Republican gets power I want to see them tax the heck out of these two commie globalist corporations. I want them to take out all the lefty corporations the best they can.
