If you click through to the creator blog you will find: "Over time, creators will be able to monetize their shows through Ad Breaks. We’ve been testing Ad Breaks over the past few months, and we will be slowly opening up availability to more creators to ensure we’re providing a good experience for the community. Creators can also create sponsored shows using our branded content tag."

They were pretty loud about being a source of news. Don't forget the Paper app they cancelled. They even encourage news sources to host their articles on Facebook. https://media.fb.com/2015/05/12/instantarticles/

FB released a product called Signal http://media.fb.com/2015/09/17/introducing-signal/
If you do a Google search that's the first result. Would be funny if they were afraid enough to do a SEO 'attack'. Yeah, tinfoil.
