    Interesting, and good to know.
    I read otherwise but I'll definitely defer to your expertise on the matter!

    This thread just reminds me of 1 more good reason to avoid having a Facebook account at all.

    They don't sell a product. They sell YOU.

    I truly don't understand why people are so upset at facetubes selling data. If you don't like targeted ads get off the interwebs, pretty simple.

    Two kinds of stories.

    Hard news - Crime, fire, accidents, severe weather, scandal (especially political) etc. happen daily and are unplanned. They'll scramble a stringer (contract reporter) or a station crew for those.
    Features - stories that require reporter research and a shoot, plus editing time to put together the story package. These have less time-sensitivity, and are usually planned and scheduled. Range is from the type of story the OP has, to soft news / feel good stories, to investigative reports, etc. Also, stories that are sponsored (paid) fall into this category as well.
