The new ‘pop-up’ news service on Facebook for listeners in Thailand

The new ‘pop-up’ news service on Facebook for listeners in Thailand, following the military coup and its censorhip of international media channels.

A new ‘pop-up’ news service is being distributed on Facebook for listeners in Thailand – Rajan Datar finds out about the way the service was developed and what it offers, the reaction it has generated among listeners, and how new digital services like this compare with traditional radio services.

Plus, a listener contacts Over to You to complain that Business Matters in featuring the result of the Brazil v Germany World Cup game in Brazil, is concentrating on items which are not really business news.
