Bill overview
The Journalism Competition and Preservation Act of 2023 aims to help publishers of online content negotiate fairer terms with major online platforms like Facebook and Google. It allows eligible news organizations to form joint entities and collectively bargain for how their content is used. The bill establishes rules for these negotiations, including requirements for good faith bargaining and arbitration, and includes a temporary safe harbor from antitrust laws. It also directs the GAO to study the impact of these negotiations on local news and journalism employment.
