Rupert Murdoch's News Corp strikes deal as Facebook agrees to pay for Australian content

 



Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp says a landmark three-year agreement with Facebook to pay for its Australian content will transform the terms of trade for journalism.

The deal will see Facebook display articles from the Australian newspaper, news.com.au, major metropolitan mastheads the Daily Telegraph, Herald Sun, the Courier-Mail and regional and community publications in Facebook News.

Facebook still has to sign with Nine Entertainment, the ABC, SBS and smaller independent publishers including Guardian Australia in order to comply with the news media code.

Facebook has also reportedly made a confidential deal with Nine Entertainment, Australia’s biggest locally-owned media giant, but the parent company won’t confirm an agreement has been reached………..
