In a statement on behalf of Meta, Andy Stone, Meta's head of policy of communications, tweeted that Facebook may “be forced to consider removing news” from the platform if the Journalism Competition and Preservation Act (JCPA) is passed.

The JCPA was introduced last year with bipartisan support over the decades-long disappearance of local journalism and the rise of antitrust against Big Tech companies. This new bill would allow publishers to negotiate with platforms like Facebook and Google over the distribution of their content. 'Negotiation' is an ambiguous term for the sort of leverage news publishers will gain. These Big Tech companies will have to pay for including news on their platform.

Stone tweets how the JCPA fails to recognize that publishers and broadcasts put their content on the company's platform because it's beneficial for them. Meta believes that these government-mandated negotiations "unfairly disregard any value [they] provide to news outlets through increased traffic and subscription”.

According to Emma Roth from The Verge, similar occurrences happened in Australia and Canada. Last February, Facebook pulled news from the platform and ripped down pages belonging to government agencies before the bill was amended. In Canada, Facebook made a similar threat in response to Canada’s Online News Act.
