News Corp and Facebook announced on Tuesday, March 16, 2021, new pay deals for news in Australia three weeks after the government passed laws that would make digital giants help cover the costs of journalism. The New York-based news business that operates mainly in the United States, Britain and Australia said it had reached a multi-year agreement with Facebook that covers its major Australian mastheads as well as regional publications. “The agreement with Facebook is a landmark in transforming the terms of trade for journalism, and will have a material and meaningful impact on our Australian news businesses,” Thomson said.
