On Facebook...if someone posts to an article or thread..who benefits? [View all]

Does a web thread post like for example a local News Channel or newspaper...they post an article i n Facebook and you are a follower...Do they get monies or something from multiple visits or likes?

I see these local news channel posts or newspapers focus on covid-19 posts...which has what I see way, way too many posts like anti-vaxers/ trumpsters verbiage laughing at covid-19, call them fear mongers etc...you know what I refer to....

The threat post, news organization does nothing about the trolls, misinformation...So I ask...Why would they ignore the massive misleading information? Do they earn something by post/likes volume?

I'm ignorant to these technology click things.
