Facebook paying carriage fees to high-quality publishers could be an excellent thing for publishers, for readers, and for Facebook https://t.co/xtNFPSfp1n

The thing about Facebook is that they’ve proven themselves to be a trustworthy and reliable partner to the media industry and everyone should jump for this money, no questions asked https://t.co/pVRvQJLZPN

Journos for a decade: "Facebook should be paying us for news to make up for all that God-given ad revenue they stole from us."

Journos this week: "Facebook is paying for news and we don't trust them. What are they thinking? This will not end well."https://t.co/uWIOFtkm2h
This seems better for publishers than Apple News but still...These publishers probably spend between $50 million and $100 million a year on journalism if not more. https://t.co/e0a2KUFCrC

First Facebook destroys journalism outlets, and now it wants content from whoever is left. https://t.co/Vjk57KkRqK

This won't end well, publishers.@Facebook approached @ABCNews, @DowJones, @WashingtonPost and @Business with offer to license their full-text content https://t.co/EA4Gzss1UQ via @WSJ

or how about no. https://t.co/5SdNwvVyQH
If true, this is just the latest in a series of moves that demonstrates that @facebook is, by any reasonable understanding of the terms, a publisher and a media company - not merely a tech tool for content it doesn’t control. https://t.co/Z70oGJU9Cz

No way this could backfire on news organizations! Facebook has always been a faithful business partner that looks out for the best interests of media outlets! https://t.co/NRicDKRpDo

More: Facebook has proposed giving news outlets discretion over whether their content will appear in the news tab or whether the section will link out to their own websites.https://t.co/qwCgGnAORV

A good start but not enough, @Facebook. You must pay a percentage of your overall profit into newsrooms indefinitely to make up for what you took from us with your greed and false metrics https://t.co/v34A4IVKUZ

"Some outlets could get as much as $3 million per year." https://t.co/sKP97TK6t7 Doesn't seem like a lot. That's probably like 4 Bret Stephens.

In strategy shift, Facebook seeks to pay millions to license news https://t.co/f3kPGCvZjC from @binarybits >> Will put Google under pressure to do the same. A change in the fate of media as we knew it? Don’t think so ... Margin pressure is so much higher in tech than media. pic.twitter.com/0ZhsbYRxIh

Strangely, @Facebook has not yet reached out to us to license our show. We expect it before EOB. https://t.co/WhTEwvgF3L. #legaltech
