WASHINGTON, D.C. — State Broadcasters Associations representing all 50 states and Puerto Rico have joined together to ask Senators Chuck Schumer and Mitch McConnell to hold a vote on the “Journalism Competition and Preservation Act” before the end of the current Congressional session.
The bill, supported by the NAB, would allow news publishers to jointly negotiate with online platforms regarding the terms and conditions by which their content may be accessed online.
