Google said on Friday that it will remove links to California news sites for some users, due to concerns about a pending bill in the Golden State that could require Google to pay publishers.
Google said Friday it would remove links to California news sites from its search results for some of its users, as it pushes back against a pending bill that would require the Silicon Valley technology company to pay publishers. The search giant said the bill, called the California Journalism Preservation Act , would upend its business model.
The California Journalism Preservation Act is supported by the California News Publishers Assn. and the News/Media Alliance, of which The Times is a member. The California News Publishers Assn. did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Supporters of the California bill said it would help level the playing field for journalism outlets that have been struggling with gaining enough digital subscriptions to survive .
