News consumption is growing exponentially, but for the past decade, the revenue to news publishers has been on a decline.

But that relationship could be changing thanks to the bipartisan introduction of the “Journalism Competition and Preservation Act” by House Antitrust Subcommittee Chairman David Cicilline, D-RI, and House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Doug Collins, R-Ga. A bipartisan companion bill was also introduced by Sens. John Neely Kennedy, R-La., member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, and Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., ranking member of the Senate Antitrust Subcommittee.
