Resolution supporting California State Assembly Bill No. 886, the California Journalism Preservation Act, authored by Assembly Member Buffy Wicks, requiring social media companies to remit a journalism usage fee to each eligible digital news publisher, equal to a percentage of the social media company’s advertising revenue, as a first step in a larger advocacy and policy effort to level the playing field in a rapidly changing media market that includes a diversity of community and ethnic local media outlets, and ensure that journalists are fairly compensated for their work.
