Abstract

The article discusses the negotiations surrounding the treatment of journalistic content in relation to content regulation in the context of the European Union's Digital Services Act. News media organisations lobbied for a privileged treatment of editorial content from platforms’ content moderation systems during the Digital Services Act's negotiations in the European Parliament, which came to be known as ‘non-interference principle’. Although the principle did not make it to the final version of the Digital Services Act, a provision related to the respect of media pluralism and media freedom by platforms was added. This article draws data from in-depth interviews with stakeholders, as well as from an analysis of legal and communication documents. It aspires to shed light on the political-economic tensions that shaped the final version of Digital Services Act and how the European Union attempted to integrate the asymmetric relationship between news media and platforms in its regulatory agenda.

“不干涉原则”:争论欧盟《数字服务法》中在线平台对编辑内容的处理
本文讨论了在欧盟《数字服务法》的背景下,围绕与内容监管相关的新闻内容处理的谈判。在欧洲议会就《数字服务法案》(Digital Services Act)进行谈判期间,新闻媒体组织游说,要求对来自平台内容审核系统的编辑内容给予特权待遇,这后来被称为“不干涉原则”。虽然这一原则没有纳入《数字服务法》的最终版本,但增加了一项与尊重媒体多元化和平台媒体自由有关的条款。本文的数据来源于对利益相关者的深度访谈,以及对法律和沟通文件的分析。它希望揭示影响《数字服务法案》最终版本的政治-经济紧张关系,以及欧盟如何试图将新闻媒体和平台之间的不对称关系纳入其监管议程。
