Facebook announces changing parent company name to 'Meta'
[SAN FRANCISCO] Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg on Thursday announced the parent company's name is being changed to "Meta" to represent a future beyond just its troubled social network.

"Our apps and their brands, they are not changing," he added.
