MOHAVE COUNTY, AZ — The Bee, a local news media company serving Mohave County and surrounding communities, has reached 3 million Facebook views, marking a significant milestone for the regional news outlet.
The Bee recently announced the achievement on social media, reporting 3 million views over approximately 30 days.
Following the announcement, Code3News reached out to The Bee requesting clarification of the reported numbers. The organization responded by providing screenshots of its Facebook analytics, confirming the 3 million-view milestone.
According to the analytics shared with Code3News, The Bee recorded approximately 31,100 content interactions, gained 823 followers, and experienced a 205% increase in Facebook views during the selected reporting period.
The outlet, which has approximately 65,000 Facebook followers, also reported a 403% increase in content interactions.
The milestone highlights the growing demand for locally produced news and information throughout Mohave County.
As more residents turn to social media for breaking news, public safety updates, community events, and local developments, independent news organizations are playing an increasingly important role in keeping communities informed.
Code3News has also experienced substantial growth across its digital platforms, including surpassing 1 million Instagram views within a 30-day period.
While the two organizations operate independently and compete for local audiences, both milestones demonstrate the considerable reach local journalism can achieve.
Competition in local news can benefit the community by encouraging timely reporting, broader coverage, and greater access to information.
Code3News congratulates The Bee on reaching 3 million Facebook views and wishes the organization continued success.
