With Signal desktop-only app from Facebook, journalists can track the popular and trending items on Facebook, and can also view lists of public figures being ranked on the basis of mentions to their profile in real-time.

And on Instagram board, journalists can filter images and videos related to specific hashtags, or ssociated with specific accounts. Whether it’s a Facebook post or Instagram media, journalists can save them for later use in custom collections, too.
