Meta has said it could remove news content from Facebook in the U.S. if a new Bill is passed requiring payment for news content.
The legislation is the Journalism Competition and Preservation Act (JCPA) and would mean that publishers would be in a better position to collectively bargain with a social media company for a share of the ad revenue.
Meta spokesperson Andy Stone said: "If Congress passes an ill-considered journalism bill as part of national security legislation, we will be forced to consider removing news from our platform altogether".
