Facebook, perhaps the world’s biggest content distribution platform, is edging ever closer to the world of traditional media.
Last month, the social giant released results from a survey showing that more people in Southeast Asia use Facebook to keep up with news than share events from their own lives.
It’s all part of a bigger promotional push highlighting Facebook’s role as a digital discovery hub for its users – a message geared towards media companies, as well as advertisers.
Our video highlights some findings from the survey, commissioned by Facebook and carried out by research agency TNS.
