The Prime Minister says publishers should have control over content as the technology develops

Journalism is the 'lifeblood of democracy' and publishers should have control over, and seek payment for, their work amid the onset of AI technology, Sir Keir Starmer said today.

Sir Keir said his government would 'always champion press freedoms', including tackling lawsuits deployed by the powerful to stop journalists publishing the truth, and warned that digital technology must not be allowed to erode press freedom.In his article, Sir Keir said: "There are over 900 local and national news titles in the UK. For all the prophecies of doom about the future of news, that represents an extraordinary strength.

"Both artificial intelligence and the creative industries – which includes news and media – are central to this government's driving mission on economic growth. To strike balance in our industrial policy, we are working closely with both sectors. We recognise the basic principle that publishers should have control over and seek payment for their work, including when thinking about the role of AI.

Run by the NMA on behalf of the industry, Journalism Matters is a weeklong celebration of the importance of journalism to our democratic way of life which hundreds of news media titles take part in every year. The campaign runs until Sunday.
