It's a full circle moment for all of us.
On Friday, Facebook announced that it was killing its embattled "Trending" news section.
SEE ALSO:I wrote the Facebook report Ted Cruz can’t stop talking about. He’s getting it all wrong.Then, mere *hours*later, the tolling of the death knell received an appropriate tribute: the news started Trending on Facebook, in the trending section itself. *LE SIGH
*Facebook said in a statement that it was scuttling the product because it did not drive a significant amount of traffic, nor garner much user engagement. But Facebook, via its Trending widget, has also come under fire for accusations of liberal bias and conservative news suppression -- a narrative that Facebook hasn't been able to escape since Mashable's own Michael Nuñez broke that story at Gizmodo in 2016.
