Glen Kyne: Former Warner Bros Discovery head says local news would struggle without Google
The Mike Hosking Breakfast - Podcast tekijän mukaan Newstalk ZB - Tiistaisin
A former media boss says Google's threat to blow up New Zealand news agreements should be taken seriously. The search engine says it will remove any ability to find New Zealand news on its platform — if the Fair Digital News Bargaining Bill passes later this year. The legislation would force global tech giants to negotiate with media companies and pay for news content. Former head of Warner Bros Discovery Glen Kyne told Mike Hosking local news would struggle without Google. “The risk is that are media companies able to survive and keep revenue flowing? I suspect the industry would take an enormous hit and that means also job losses would go with it.” LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
