Local news organizations are under pressure. Local news strengthens our community, but local papers across the country are under threat. Big Tech takes advantage of the news and information created by local publishers, but they won’t pay for it.

The Journalism Competition & Preservation Act (JCPA) is a bipartisan bill that allows local news companies to negotiate with Big Tech to ensure they are treated fairly and compensated justly. If Congress doesn’t pass the JCPA, communities across America will continue to lose quality local, fact-based news coverage.

Contact your member of Congress to support the JCPA and ensure Big Tech doesn’t cancel local news: 202.224.3121

Overview of the JCPA – Journalism Competition & Preservation Act

The free and diverse press—particularly local press—is the backbone of a healthy and vibrant democracy. But the control of access to trustworthy news online has become centralized by just two platforms. The Pew Research Center reported in 2017 that the majority of Americans access news through only two platforms—Facebook and Google—noting that “Facebook outstrips all other social media sites as a source of news.” Recent market reports also indicate that these same companies control the vast majority of online referrals for news and the bulk of digital advertising revenue, while revenue for news publishers has plummeted by $31 billion since 2006.

The Journalism Competition and Preservation Act (JCPA) creates a temporary safe harbor for news publishers to band together to negotiate with online platforms to improve and protect Americans’ access to quality, trustworthy sources of news online.

Overview

Americans are looking to their local print and digital news publishers in this time of paramount public health concern and historic protests. Traffic to news websites has increased significantly as consumers want to know what is happening in their communities so they can stay safe and healthy, as well as engage with their fellow community members.

Our high-quality journalism offers brand safe environments for advertising. Yet news publishers are facing greater challenges than ever due to decreasing advertising revenue resulting from the coronavirus pandemic.

Facebook has not sufficiently addressed advertisers’ concerns about hate speech and misinformation appearing on their platform.

As you are considering alternatives to Facebook for your advertising budget, we hope you will consider advertising in your local newspaper, print or digital. Not only will you be able to feel confident in the content alongside which your ads are appearing, but you will be helping to ensure that during these challenging times, news publishers, who are working tirelessly to bring the news to their communities during this crisis, are around to cover the next one.

Support Real News. Contact your local newspaper about advertising opportunities today.
