Why Are The Most Popular Posts On Facebook A Secret?

Your digital media catch-up is right here.

Every Tuesday – for just a few minutes – I join Heather Backman (my old buddy from her days on CHOM FM) on the air at Jack 103 (Rogers Sports & Media) to give a quick blast about the current state of technology, media and Internet culture. We’re calling the segment Tech Tuesday (and we do it in just a few minutes).

What is Tech Tuesday?

If you ever find yourself wondering… What, exactly, is the point of TikTok? How can I make myself look better on a Zoom? Reddit? What’s that about? How do I help my kids be safer online? Who’s the latest creator and streamer that I should be checking out?

You are not alone.

This is what Heather Backman and I discussed this morning over on Jack 103 FM for a couple of minutes:

Facebook’s Most Viewed Article In Early 2021 Raised Doubt About COVID Vaccine – NPR. 

“The New York Times first reported the existence of the shelved report on Friday, two days after Facebook published a similar report about top posts from the second quarter. Facebook executives debated about publishing the earlier report but decided to withhold it over concerns it would make the company look bad, the Times reported.”

Does Facebook have something to hide, or are the most popular posts really not all that important?

App of the week: Comic Caption Meme Maker. Fun app to turn any photo you have into a comic book, and a perfect tie-in to Free Comic Book Day, which was last Saturday!

Once the segment goes live on Jack 103, I will post it here for you to listen in, learn, share and engage….
