Digital traces that users leave in the course of everyday liking, commenting or sharing posts on Facebook pages allow the researchers to get a glimpse at least of their interpretative and productive activity [12]. This research aims to explore the interpretative and productive activity of followers of diasporic news media on Facebook. I focus on the geo-ethnic storytelling [9] assuming that diasporic media provide their audiences with access to both national public spheres, of the host and the home countries. To meet the informational needs of their audiences, they cover news agenda of the host country in the native language different from the language of mainstream media, possibly considering it from the angle of ethno-cultural or linguistic minority. Diasporic media also continue to include news from the home country, despite the fact that the mainstream media of this country can be accessible through Internet or in other ways. As other media, diasporic media create Facebook pages where users can easily interact with the news items published on these pages. Based on knowledge about connections between emotional responses and reactions provided by Facebook pages I assume that connection between geography of a news item and Facebook reactions on it reflect the user involvement into the public sphere of the host or home country. To explore this connection in detail, I compare the news user behavior on six Estonian and Latvian news media Facebook pages.
