Facebook's TV app was released for Samsung smart TVs on Monday, and now Apple is promoting the app in the Apple TV's App Store.

Facebook is reportedly talking to MLB about live streaming at least one baseball game per week, and it recently hired an executive from MTV to help produce original shows.
