More than 80 news publishers representing 25 states across the country met with Members of Congress on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C. on September 27, 2023 for the News/Media Alliance’s ‘Support Journalism’ Fly-In.
Eighty-four participants representing news publishers in 25 states across the country will meet with Senators and Representatives on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C. today as part of a Support Journalism Fly-In hosted by the News/Media Alliance. The Fly-In is being held to advocate for the importance of quality journalistic and creative content and the need for legislative action in the United States.
Legislation around the world – including Europe, Australia and Canada – that requires Big Tech platforms such as Google and Meta to pay news publishers fairly for use of their valuable content is working.
