Facebook Pages — Media Category (Nov 2017)
A Facebook dataset of 27,917 pages, 206,259 mutual likes, collected by Rozemberczki et al. via the Facebook Graph API (November 2017). Each record contains undirected edges between blue verified Facebook media pages that mutually liked each other, with node attributes including page name and raw Facebook ID. Graph of blue verified Facebook media pages, where edges represent mutual likes between pages, capturing how users discover and engage with media and news content. Suitable for community detection in social networks, graph embedding, media influence analysis, news consumption studies, journalism and media network analysis.
