More attempts at silencing opposition to the controlled narrative and quash free speech, which means that only FAKE news will be allowed.
- Meta has threatened to remove all news content from its sites if Congress passes a law allowing news organizations to negotiate with big tech
- The Journalism Competition and Preservation Act would allow publications to negotiate ‘pricing, terms and conditions’ of its content distribution
- Advocates say it is necessary to counter the market dominance of Facebook and Google, while Meta executives suggest it may actually impede outlets’ revenue
- Conservatives also fear that it would allow news media to further restrict conservative voices, while progressives say it may help wealthy executives
Meta has threatened to remove all news content from its sites if Congress passes a law allowing news organizations to negotiate the terms of its content distribution with big tech.
Communications Director Andy Stone tweeted on Monday that if Congress passes the Journalism Competition and Preservation Act, Meta would be ‘forced’ to remove all news content from Facebook and Instagram.
