Competition Watchdog Takes On Google And Facebook

09 Sep 2020

Description

The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission is pressuring Google and Facebook to support locally produced news by agreeing to pay for material that appears on their platforms. The regulator believes there is a significant power imbalance between the American tech giants and news originators. But Google and Facebook disagree. Google is warning users its popular services will be diminished, while Facebook says it will remove all news from its Australian platform. Piers and John examine the utterly disrupted media landscape of the digital age and what's at stake.
