The News Media Coalition as part of the wider news and content industries has called upon Chancellor Merkel and President Macron to urgently intervene to end the political standstill in the important Copyright Directive review negotiations. The NMC has joined other news organisations today (31/01/19) in writing to express deep concern.
News organisations hope a positive conclusion of the copyright process will introduce a fairer return to news publishers and news agencies so they can continue to provide a choice of professionally-produced news into the future.
