This article is kind of a mix of new styles, at time pure number and at other times becoming more of an opinion piece/ thought piece on what has happened with news referrals from Facebook. However, it is very much a unique and seemingly honest insiders from the news medias perspective of how Facebook algorithm changes have an impact.

The author and publisher of this article are outwardly frustrated with Facebook's news feed policies, but the article itself does a nice job of outlining the struggle for publishers and the changing Facebook landscape since early 2017. If you're in the news business, this is an important article to read.

This is a well written piece that is fact based and fair. There is no clear bias, only a report about Facebook’s height of influence on news media and the decline of that. I think it’s important to note that if this problem had never arisen due to Facebook’s influence on voters, I would probably not be writing this review on this platform.
