Labour committed to bribing the media

The Post reports:

Labour’s leader Chris Hipkins has committed to reviving the Fair Digital News Bargaining Bill, which has been left languishing on Parliament’s order paper since 2024, and said the party will campaign on it at the election.

This is just another version of the PIJF. The former saw taxpayers funding the media. This sees Internet companies funding the media. The impact will be to make the media even more left leaning, because you get an institutional bias towards parties that offer you money.
