Abstract
This is a discussion about commercial news production, and copyright-related laws in Europe. It is a response to the consultation opened by the European Commission in March 2016 about whether to create an EU-wide neighbouring right, in the copyright family of intellectual property rights, that will benefit publishers. It examines four arguments for a news publishers’ right. These are:
• it will provide a necessary incentive to the commercial production of news, an activity that is valuable to a democratic society; • commercial news publishers are treated unequally by EU copyright law, and a publishers’ right will resolve this; • online re-distributors of published news are free riding on the effort of commercial news publishers, and a publishers’ right can be expected to restrain this; • commercial news publishers have a natural right to the news they publish, and such rights are being breached by online re-distributors of news: a publishers’ right can be expected to protect them.
