were first off, stories not watched o in 2016 on instagram.only started monetizing them this year so the growth is rapid. instagram has grown 60% in 2019 alone and will account for between he percent of facebook's worldwide revenue, that will be higher in the u.s. at around 30%. when you look at instagram stories, most is happening in the u.s. so it is going very rapidly. taylor: so, sarah, to play off of that, if the stories are really monetizing well in the u.s., do we expect the next logical move would be to go overseas? when do we see the monetization abroad? sarah: i think you will see a lot more monetization in general. the problem is that users are increasingly migrating to this moral format. the main news feed and instagram feed have asked that are much more expensive for facebook, so the overall pricing has been depressed because of this shift to stories. maybe once it becomes more natural for advertisers to do stories, we will see that improve over time. taylor: eric, is this a good sign frankly that as long as i don't care if it is

i think we saw something similar, last week with instagram.y requiring users to enter their age when they create an account. you cannot create an account if you are under 13 which is what was always the rule but never really enforced. i think what we are seeing from this pressure is these things seem small. as a 13-year-old going to create not one now because they need to enter the birthday? probably not. but at least they are putting in safety measures they should have had all along and now being called out on it for the first time. and now they are following through. paul: does any of the things have to do with the u.s. regulator was also investigating? how is that proceeding? kurt: it is hard to imagine it is not a point of discussion here. they are looking at these tiktok -- excuse me, the acquisition. which has now been merged with tiktok. i am told there are conversations between the company and the regulatory body. i think if you are tiktok, you have to take this seriously. the cfius arrangements happen while it the acquisition is happe

whether it is on instagram newsfeeds, instagram stories, or of course the normal facebook app as well: eric, do these things actually work? i see ads, but are people clicking on them? are they buying products? is it translating into actual dollars? >> first off, facebook, instagram, they have great tools for advertisers. when you look at attribution, they really are ahead of the pack, in a lot of ways. if someone saw an ad to whether or not they made a purchase. shopable will- ads will be even more important moving forward. that something closer to the consumer as well. a lot of the ads are brand building. there are a ton of options and tools for advertisers who need to improve roi and prove that their advertising is effective. taylor: that was eric haggstrom of emarketer and sarah frier of bloomberg technology. a bad year for the global tv industry, with sales falling almost 4% in 2019. that is the steepest drop since the recession a decade ago. advertisers are following users to the internet, but there are some winners. i spoke to dallas lawrence of channel factory, a marketing tech
