Meta threats ‘will fail to derail US news bargaining laws’
in an effort to force Google and Facebook to pay eligible large and small news publishers to display articles in the search engine and “newsfeed”.there was an imbalance of bargaining power between media companies and digital platforms.
If passed, the JCPA would allow small and local news outlets to negotiate with tech giants for payment of their content. Unlike the Australian laws, the JCPA is tailored specifically to small publishers and has an “employee cap”, which excludes larger newspaper publishers from the bill. It is not supported by major news outlets.
Coffey said if Congress found another way to pass the laws, they would be another example for countries trying to balance the market power.
