Facebook’s peace deal with Rupert Murdoch spooks the media world
Agreement between News Corp and the social network down under may not lay foundations for a lasting accord that helps all news publishers
The chief executive of Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp is a man transformed.
After cash-for-journalism deals with Google and Facebook, Robert Thomson’s accusations of “smugness” from Big Tech have made way for compliments.
Thomson lauded Google boss Sundar Pichai for his “thoughtful commitment to journalism” following an agreement with News Corp last month.
Praise was also saved for Mark Zuckerberg on Monday when Thomson credited the Facebook chief for “helping fashion the future of journalism” through a pay deal in Australia.
