“Instant Articles lets them deliver fast, interactive articles while maintaining control of their content and business models,” said Facebook Chief Product Officer Chris Cox.
The news publishers can either sell and embed advertisements in the articles and keep all of the revenue, or allow Facebook to sell ads. The Internet social networking company will also let the news companies track data and traffic through comScore and other analytics tools.
The other launch partners for Instant Articles are NBC, The Atlantic, The Guardian, BBC News, Spiegel and Bild, Facebook said.
