Facebook adds Horizontal Logos to vacate its responsibility

In an attempt to overcome one of the biggest problems it faced, Facebook has launched a new feature for news pages and pages in general called “Brand Asset Library” to enable it to differentiate its news so that it can solve the problem:

“I read this on Facebook.”

A step that is not so strong, but it shows what the world’s first social network suffers due to the news that is attributed to it while it nor it’s blogs or official pages are publishing any of these news.

The site adds a feature that allows page owners to add logos to everything that is published on the page by providing the option “Horizontal Logos” within the “Publishing Tools” to appear these horizontal logos with everything that is published On the page in an attempt to vacate the responsibility of the Facebook-site from this news that may occasionally infect and may not infect other times.

A poll by the Pew Research Center found that only 56 percent of those responding to the poll report the source of the article or news when they access it by clicking on its link through a social networking site.

This weeklong study reveals that when individuals followed a link to a news story, they were more often than not able to associate that link with a particular news source. If they had followed a link, individuals were asked to name the specific news outlet(s) they were taken to. On average, online news consumers named a source 56% of the time.

This feature is available only when searching for news or in the Trends list within the app at least until now, without any expansion information to include posts on the News Feed page.

This is a small step from Facebook, but it remains a commendable attempt to absolve the site of its responsibility.
