Would be interesting to know how much of the remaining content roots in those 4%. How many of the remaining posts are in reaction to news, or reactions to reactions to news. Also do the 4% include screenshots of news articles and headlines, a very common practice on Facebook.

I'm not a FB user but I understand there is an audience for fighting about news stories on FB a'd that's got to keep at least some people coming back to the platform for more.
