After months of turmoil surrounding Facebook’s news feed and the ability it has to spread fake or biased news, the company has posted a job listing for a head of news partnerships.
Facebook has been under scrutiny for failing to battle fake news and the job posting states that the social networking company is looking for someone with at least two decades of experience “to lead Global News Partnerships, serving as the company’s leading representative with news organizations worldwide.”
According to Facebook, the goal of news partnerships is to “help publishers and journalists understand how to reach and engage their audiences, and to innovate with new technologies.”
