Canadians won’t be getting their news from Facebook. Hopefully, it will drive people to actual news sites or aggregators where they can click and read the news and be informed.
No, not that. I guess I am looking for a solution to the headline reader that doesn’t read the article and then posts it. The kind of news of Facebook can be alarming and I don’t think it should be a news source.

But they can still get news from Facebook, they just won’t be getting it from “news outlets” specifically.
I wish it went further than that. That’s kinda sad.
“Further than that” meaning banning links in general?
