What is the wrong with Facebook Social Reading Apps?

Facebook is trying to push people to use open graph reading apps by showing some users in a "Trending Articles" section. Don’t think so it is a most irritating feature of Facebook?

This tab is appears right inside the news feed using a severe gray bar, like Google + having some in trending items. But this is specifically for articles shared from Facebook "social reader" apps. A Facebook spokesperson make clear that this article shared "social reader" apps is designed not to promote the most popular news articles being shared on Facebook from across the Web but only to promote articles from social reading.

Before announcing frictionless sharing, every Facebook action was intentional. You had to post a new story, unless you clicked on some spammy app and it allows to post as you.
Now, apps can ask you up front whether you want to share all your activity with your friends or you have to keep it private. If you allows, your friends can see every single song you listen on Spotify or article you read on the Washington Post.

Frictionless sharing is the best example of a feature that's launched only considering Facebook it self and advertisers, which is irritating normal user. It takes all the value out of the act of sharing.

The news apps are even worse. Not only do they automatically broadcast whatever salacious headline you clicked on, they serve as a sort of paywall. For example, in the Washington Post Social Reader, you "pay" by installing the app, so you have to agree to spam your friends before you can read someone's spam-post. Isn't that social?

The Difference Between Google and Journalism

Richard Gingras, the head of news products for Google says "We need to rethink every facet of the journalism model in light of the dramatic changes in the architecture of the news ecosystem." Nowadays Google news is becoming the world's front page. In general working people are preferred to read news on Google rather then reading newspaper. In fact they didn’t have that much time to read.

Also Gingras added that the act of journalism should result in a product whose form is better suited to the container that Google has created for it.”

Journalism

The ongoing death of newspapers is not about revolutionizing in newspaper journalism, or necessitate for them. It is because of a business model in the face of current tools – Google News. Journalism is used to kept report secret, but in the middle of a vast range of challenging histories, it's been forgotten the last year’s canceled NBC sitcoms – which things made newspapers successful was never the news. Newspapers are very important in people's lives as it connect with their city, the local events and the daily topics of conversation. Many of these services were brought from out side the Journalism or from other company.
News has always been a loss leader; it's the thing publishers provide to make the real products they used to sell timely, interesting and competitive. It's literally the sugar coating.
