"Last week’s horrendous attack at Central #Synagogue underscores the scourge of #antisemitism that has shaken #American #Jews to their core. In an era of rising violence, American Jews and non-Jews seeking values-based leadership would do well to look to the leadership of the #Jewish Council for Public Affairs (#JCPA), founded 80 years ago to engage communities on issues of common concern and shared values (especially #civilrights, justice, and equality).
#JenniferRubin: “JCPA works ‘to build a just and inclusive #democracy.’ Why is that critical, and is #America at risk when one party undermines #democratic values?”
#AmySpitalnick: “Jewish safety and inclusive, pluralistic democracy are inextricably linked — simply put, there is no true democracy without real Jewish safety, and there is no real Jewish safety without ensuring a truly inclusive, pluralistic democracy."

Proposed #digital link tax bill #JCPA would fail to accomplish stated goals of benefitting journalists while creating new problems for websites, the digital economy, & the #internet itself.

Re-introduced #tech-targeted #antitrust bills like #AICOA & #JCPA lack strong factual basis & sound #economics - issues raised by bipartisan lawmakers as well as experts from @mercatus years ago.

The #JCPA - which failed for the 2nd time last Congress - still has significant problems and constitutional infirmities and should not be made law.

While #JCPA passed committee, Senators on both sides of the vote & aisle said the legislation remains dangerously flawed. This bill is far from ready for floor action.

The #JCPA likely violates the #FirstAmendment by requiring sites to carry publishers’ speech, would inhibit removal of misinformation, & would grant a partial #antitrust exemption permitting favored businesses to form cartels.

CW: Long thread/11
Meanwhile, the proposed US version, #JCPA, has a payout schedule based on the number of clicks a news outlet generates for each platform - a metric that will see the lion's share of money going to the far-right clickbait sites that push conspiracy theories, disinformation, and culture-war nonsense - and see floods of social media traffic as a result.

Tell the Senate: Reject the #JCPA | Free Press Action - https://act.freepress.net/sign/journ-stop-jcpa
Here's why: https://slate.com/technology/2022/12/jcpa-journalism-competition-preservation-act.html – This bill doesn't address the structural causes of news media's declining revenue, excludes small publications and encourages consolidations and buyouts that gut newsrooms.

Experts from @mercatus pointed out the lack of strong factual basis & sound #economics behind #tech-targeted #antitrust regulation years ago- a critique that remains relevant for bills like #AICOA & #JCPA this session.

News Publishers Admit They Get Value From Search Traffic, Even As They Demand Extra Compensation For ItIn recent years, major media organizations have been lobbying Congress to enact legislation, the “Journalism Competition and Preservation Act,” requiring search engine providers to engage in a form of collective bargaining about the tax they would pay to media publishers for the privilege of providing links to their news articles, backed up by mandatory interest arbitration in which the thumb would be placed on the scales by simply assuming that the search engine companies could not refuse to provide links and would be required to pay something. The contention of the “News Media Alliance” has been that the search engines take value (access to news reporting that is expensive to produce) and provide nothing in return.
...
But it always seemed to me that search engines provide value to the media – traffic to media websites,. Beyond that I am troubled by the First Amendment implications of creating a modern version of the tort of “hot news misappropriation,” not to speak of the “compelled speech” implications of requiring search engine companies to provide links and payments to speakers whose content they might abhor. (The proposed statute would make it illegal for search engines to deny links to any entity represented in the collective bargaining process).
