Aye you got any ideas for day 7 of caejose week (it's a free day)? Every idea I've come up with I've just not been able to get into writing it, and the event starts in essentially 4 days now and 😭👍
Good question! Perhaps cuddles, AU, bubbles, divorce, anything really! Maybe even just something self indulgent!

I'M FINALLY CAUGHT UP WITH TWSB 😭😭
Thankfully, like TCF, I'm reading while it's still on going so I don't feel that emptiness that comes with finishing a series! (looking at you, ORV)
CJC is such a good ship I can't even-- 🥲
Still, my favorite character is apparently our beloved Cardinal, Aurelie Boutier 💖 that scene when she kept saying our Jesse is stuck in my head.... or my child...... 🥲
ANYWAYS!! I've been sleeping around 4-6 AM this past 2 weeks bcs of TWSB and it's now 4 AM so I should probably go to sleep now lol

Games played in Camp Jupiter
Covering smaller games that the kids have taken time to play, and the bigger official games, this post was going to be also a Camp Half-Blood one but really like… I just don’t talk about CHB lol.
When I mention something about actual Ancient Rome, take any and all my words with pinches of salt, I try to research a lot but for silly posts like this I cannot 100% confirm that my information is historically accurate. I am not historian:]
Camp Jupiter
Camp Jupiter takes their games seriously. Literally doesn’t matter the game, everyone get super riled up for the war games. Or you’d see the most competitive game of Yahtzee. Staring with the canon war games first, the ones mentioned are listed below,
Death ball; described as similar to paint ball, except wild- using things like various dangerous poisons, acids, and fireballs (however that may be) and is the most deadly. Canonically (as we get the only deathball match in Camp Jupiter classified) is played by launching the balls from mini manuballista, or smaller variants of a type of ancient Roman crossbow. We only get one paragraph explaining it then move on, I think that’s the nature of CJC and I honestly don’t care for it that much. Despite my confusion on how this game canonically is described, I’d like to say my own Hc I got when I first heard ‘Deathball’ in SoN. In my head it’s water balloon fight, dodgeball-esque. With all of the deadly things in these balls that break on contact. It probably is the newest war game after some Praetors in more modern times instated it. The game is very loose, you’re with your contubernium (A Contubernium is the smallest unit in the Roman military, close to modern squads and though they likely didn’t serve much purpose other than to boost morale and like group stuff in the legion I like thinking of them serving a slightly bigger purpose in my Camp Jupiter- more on that in the future) and the goal is probably to make it to a certain marker or something without loosing members or whatever. Because reminder, the war games are just practices of war skills that the legionnaires need to know and serve a purpose to train them and aren’t just silly little games. And as for a cherry on top Ancient Romans possibly played Dogeball akin games- (P.S Frank also mentions this one too but I just didn’t mention that)
Siege is the name of the game we see in SoN and I really don’t have many thoughts on Siege, think that maybe it’s a bit more organized and the cohorts have a lot more stratagem (my autocorrect just used stratagem and I’m not changing it) involved in it. War games are probably a like twice a month thing and are announced probably the week before(? Like the first week of the month the war game for next Friday is announced and then after that the next is announced for the last day of the month, idk tho) and cohorts are given more time to plan.
Gladiator battles; Frank mentions this once and then we move on with no further explanation. I’d think this (and chariot racing among other things) are played in New Rome, and it’s a bracket tournament style (sort of like how Wrestling meets work except also trying to narrow it down until all the matches funnel into one victor? Like those bracket things in like basketball or in the movies- idk) and should only have one victor like I said. Killing isn’t the name of the game in this iteration (they still need their legionnaires-) though injuries are very common and a few have died to it, but surprisingly has a pretty low death rate; probably because they have both camp medics and actual doctors from New Rome on site.
Chariot Racing; the other one that Frank mentions. Also in New Rome, worked roughly the same as in Rome. I don’t have many thoughts other than this shifts Camp a bit and (like from my skimming of some articles-) higher ranking legionnaires and higher ranking families like to have their own horse teams, certain legionnaires take interest in charioteering too. Two members from each cohort are possibly selected for the chariot racing (Two races occur every time, for the fun of it) and compete as usual.
Legionnaires when finally retiring from the legions often do like pursuing careers that correlate to was ancient Roman sports were like. There are leagues purely for different teams within New Rome, seeing as sports are very important (Also if including my silly little outposts hc, they also have their own teams and the leagues have their own stuff and it’s like sports-)
Now, I’m actually good with the list of canon war games and don’t have much more to add onto it, and therefore I wanna get into the smaller games that legionnaires on their own free time like playing,
Swimming; Legion-wide activity that legionnaires like taking part in, whether that is swimming in the little tiber, or in recreational parts of the bathhouse/bathhouses. Legionnaires from not New Rome like to introduce water games.
Boxing and wrestling are givens though they lean more ancient, no dying but the rules are a bit looser. Boxing gloves aren’t used and Camp opts for the traditional method of wrapping your hands with cloth or even just going bare knuckle if both parties agree to it. It’s recreational and not taken too seriously, though disputes sometimes are solved in any method of these smaller games (think duel esque but not actually dying)
Running events; stuff like foot races are really common in camp for freetime. Also doubles as crucial camp training for stamina and strength, plus tag has begun to be integrated too.
Soccer; American football hasn’t caught on too much but Soccer is shared between bother parties. Modern soccer and then New Rome’s soccer type, along with other ball games like rugby, and kickball.
Mythomagic; practically universal. Most New Rome kids grew up on it and will teach new legionnaires that don’t know. There’s a shop in New Rome that specializes in games.
Any type of Ancient Roman board games; there’s a lot and I don’t want to list all of them but this category. Most legionnaires grew up on them and play them with each other. Though it gets competitive.
Yahtzee; have I ever played Yahtzee? No. Do I know how to play Yahtzee? Also no. But it has dice in it and I feel like several Demigods made homemade Yahtzee and started playing.
Varying modern board games; some have caught on but all are mostly homemade except for a few that are from New Rome or families that live outside of New Rome sending them to active legionnaires. Things like monopoly are popular
Mafia; New Rome kids have run with it and it really is a good skill builder for their mind skills or whatever. (I put it in because I like Mafia and I don’t hear people talk about it.)
Note on a future update of the Camp Jupiter map, I have given up on drawing it- drawing it makes it 10x more confusing for me, I’ll just describe things and buildings and I’m honestly better at that. If anyone wants to tackle drawing it from any future descriptions I’d give them go ahead but for now I’ll stick to just describing it all with my delight rather than stressing myself over a map lol.
Also the gaming scene needs to come out with a rpg(?) game set in Ancient Rome with deep character customization, interesting story, and focuses more on the story than combat mechanics because I want that (think Pokémon or Hogwarts legacy esque) also a Pjo game that is similar to the games I mentioned, please I’d froth at the throat over it.
Anyway like I said this was supposed to include CHB games but like- I don’t know but I just.. don’t talk about CHB. I’m more motivated about Camp Jupiter and like talking about it more.
Also wanted to include my favorite board game (Ticket to Ride) in this but I sadly do not think it’s very popular in Camp Jupiter. Also I spitefully didn’t name Chess, but chess is probably played.

Here is my finished prompt for day one of CJC Week 2022. It aint my best work since I'm doing this late at night but eh: the others will be better. This is also my first time writing for CaeJose and anime so bear with me!
Please listen to this while reading this prompt if you will. 😄
---------------------------------------------------
Stars of Gold and Destiny
"Caesar, do you ever wonder how hamon came to be?"
Joseph and Caesar were up upon a clay roof. The two had went through complete hell earlier in the day and with a little convincing; decided to cool down on the roof of a small, Itailian house in the middle of the rural.
Caesar shifted a little to his right side, his face facing both the full bright moon and his best friend. "Sometimes. Although I'd rather think of it not existing." Caesar spoke with a bit of tightness in his throat, and Joseph knew exactly why.
"You can't blame hamon for the death of your father, Caesar. It's just a tool." Joseph said this, but yet he himself sometimes felt a tang of hatred for the so called "tool". If hamon was something to be savored: why didn't his grandfather walk away from that ship with his granny Erina and be here right now? Why couldnt he have defeated Dio, his rival, on his first encounter with the foe? Joseph thought about this almost everytime his grandfather was mentioned around him. He also thought this frequently while training.
Caesar let out a slight sigh. Joseph then sat up to face his friend. Joseph stared into Caesar's shiny emerald green eyes with pity. "I know, but I can't shake that day away from my-"
Joseph layed ontop of Caesar, embracing him in a hug. Caesar was caught by surprise at first: but soon gave in and let himself relax. He told himself not to shed a tear, but one slipped out anyways. Caesar sat up and slid his face into Joseph's neck. Joseph wiped Caesar's tears and held him tight.
"It's not fair, Joseph." Caesar's voice was shakeing with rage. "I know." Joseph spoke, his voice now being the dominating rough one instead of Caesars'. The two hung onto eachother tightly, giving eachother the comfort they both desired.
"We're going to beat these pillermen." Joseph whispered. "Mm.." Caesar whispered back with his head tilted downwards."We're going to avenge your father and grandfather, and my grandfather. We'll destroy that stone mask." Joseph said through his teeth. "I swear." Caesar says. Joseph breaks the hug slowly, and looks in pity of his friend laced with guilt and sorrow. Caesar tilts his head up to look at his dear friend, but something else catches his eye.
"Joseph- look!" Caesar shouts.
Joseph turns around to see two bright shooting stars gliding across the sky, their gleam almost blinding.
Woah!
The two stars who had now burnt out and disappeared shone more brightly than the clusters of stars that speckled the black sky in bits of white bright glitter. Caesar and Joseph both watched in awe of the leftovers of the scene that was projected right in front of them. They looked at eachother like two kids watching a magic trick.
"Did you see that?!" Caesar gleed.
"Yeah! That was my first time ever seeing a shooting star!" Joseph gasped with the largest smile on his face.
"What?!" Caesar gasped. Joseph looked down nervously and tried to hide his blushing face that was illuminated by the bright stars.
"I remember my first time seeing one. Me, my father, and my siblings were on the porch talking and I saw one! It wasn't as bright as those, but it was still a hell of a sight!" Caesar says eagerly.
Joseph gazes at Caesar in awe. Caesar notices this and wraps his arm around Joseph.
"Well, at least you got to see two really bright ones tonight! I guess this means that we have to defeat the pillerman. Maybe this is our destiny!"
Joseph lets out a "hmf" and flashes Caesar a wide smile. "I guess so, Ceasarino."
The two continue their night looking at the endless pool of bright stars scattering a dark night. The cool air hitting their faces while they both have deep conversations about ponders and questions they both wonder about- never getting bored of what the eigher has to talk about.
-----------
And that's a wrap! Ah, I loved this prompt as I also love star gazing when I get the time, and looking into the wonders of outer space. I might do more of these nighttime fics as I love writing with night as my setting. I dunno what it is but I love writing for nighttime...hm. Hope you enjoyed, and know that Caesar and Joseph are still in their "getting to know one another" stage in their relationship when this story takes place. Goodnight everybody!

GENA SLAUGHTER
Tumblr media
CJC No. 21-0714
PUBLIC REPRIMAND HONORABLE GENA SLAUGHTER 191 ST DISTRICT COURT DALLAS, DALLAS COUNTY, TEXAS
Tumblr media
During its meeting on December 5-6, 2023, the State Commission on Judicial Conduct concluded a review of the allegations against the Honorable Gena Slaughter, 191 st District Court, Dallas County, Texas.
Judge Slaughter was advised by letter of the Commission's concerns and provided a limited written response.
After considering the evidence before it, the Commission entered the following Findings and Conclusion:
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. At all times relevant hereto, the Honorable Gena Slaughter served as judge of the 191 st District Court, of Dallas, Dallas County, Texas.
2. On February 21, 2018, the case styled David Reiss & Spy Games, LLC v. Jason R. Hansonv. IberiaBank, Cause No.
DC-18-02498 was filed in the 19151 District Court (the "Reiss Case").
3. On October 15, 2020, the Dallas Court of Appeals issued a writ of mandamus opinion regarding the Reiss Case in a proceeding styled In re David Reiss, Case No. 05-20-00708- CV (the "2020 Mandamus").
4. At the time of the 2020 Mandamus, the Reiss Case had gone through four trial settings.
5. In its 2020 Mandamus opinion, the Dallas Court of Appeals listed seven motions that were pending from six to over twenty-four months without rulings, although Judge Slaughter had been notified of those pending matters on January 17, 2020, and on May 11, 2020.
6. The Dallas Court of Appeals cited the legal standards to Judge Slaughter that would require such rulings to be made within a reasonable time, considering all the surrounding circumstances, and concluded Judge Slaughter had not ruled within a reasonable period and directed Judge Slaughter to enter the orders, which she then did.
Tumblr media
7. On October 27, 2020, the Texas Lawyer published an article about Judge Slaughter's delinquency in ruling and the writ of mandamus titled, "Punished for Later Rulings in Past, Dallas Judge Now Compelled to Act on 7 Long-Pending Motions. "
8. On June 21, 2022, the Dallas Court of Appeals issued a second and similar writ of mandamus opinion regarding the Reiss Case in a proceeding styled In re David Reiss and Spy Games, LLC, Case No. 05-22-00575-CV (the "2022 Mandamus").
9. In its 2022 Mandamus opinion, the Dallas Court of Appeals listed six motions that were pending from two to over ten months without rulings, although Judge Slaughter had been notified of those pending matters at a hearing on May 3, 2022, and by correspondence dated May 5, 2022, May 18, 2022, and May 27, 2022.
10. At the time of the 2022 Mandamus, the Reiss Case had added an additional five more trial settings.
11. In its 2022 Mandamus, the Dallas Court of Appeals noted that the ninth and then current trial setting was June 27, 2022, which was less than a week away and the delinquent rulings were impacting the ability of that setting to occur. Also, it stated the record did not reflect that any special docket conditions or other matters had prevented Judge Slaughter from ruling on the motions that were the subject of the writ of mandamus petition.
12. Also, in its 2022 Mandamus opinion, the Dallas Court of Appeals again cited the same legal standards to Judge Slaughter that would require such rulings within a reasonable time, considering all the surrounding circumstances and found that Judge Slaughter had not ruled within such a period.
13. Following the 2022 Mandamus opinion, Judge Slaughter entered the required orders within the period as directed.
14. On June 27, 2023, the State Commission on Judicial Conduct forwarded a Letter of lnquiry to Judge Slaughter to the mailing address of her court and asked her to provide a written response to the complaint on or before July 21, 2023. Judge Slaughter did not respond.
15. On August 23, 2023, the State Commission on Judicial Conduct again forwarded the Letter of lnquiry to Judge Slaughter's county email address and a private email address previously used by the Commission.
16. On August 25, 2023, Judge Slaughter responded stating she had not received the June 27th Letter of Inquiry that was mailed to her and requested an extension to respond to the Letter of lnquiry. Judge Slaughter's request was granted, and she was given until September 22, 2023 to respond.
17. On September 22, 2023, Judge Slaughter emailed the Commission asking if her responses were received the previous day via email and stated she was having technical issues. Judge Slaughter was advised that her responses were not received and that she could send her responses via regular mail by September 25, 2023, and they would be deemed timely.
18. On September 27, 2023, Judge Slaughter emailed the Commission and again stated she was having technical issues sending her responses via email. However, the Commission did receive a photo of one page of a partial document emailed by Judge Slaughter. Thereafter, Judge Slaughter was instructed to send her full responses via email or via regular mail. Judge Slaughter did not respond.
19. On October 12, 2023, the Commission attempted to contact Judge Slaughter via phone and email regarding her responses to the Letter of lnquiry and provided her with a new deadline of October 16, 2023 to provide her full responses to the Letter of lnquiry. Judge Slaughter did not respond.
20. In her partial response, Judge Slaughter stated she did not believe she has been "accused of willfully or deliberately, or for that matter even negligently, ignoring the substantive statutes and laws in regard to the case", and that "those delays have not stopped this litigation process from proceeding or the trial being conducted."
21. However, Judge Slaughter conceded that she did not timely sign the orders but asserted "most of the rulings had been made and communicated to the parties, but I did fail to follow-up and sign all of the orders. These delays did not however delay the final disposition of this case." She also asserted that, "I need better processes in place to ensure that all the rulings are made, and orders are signed. And in fact, I have initiated new processes to do so."
RELEVANT STANDARDS
1. Canon 2A of the Texas Code of Judicial Conduct states in relevant part, "A judge shall comply with the law."
2. Canon 3B(2) of the Texas Code of Judicial Conduct states in relevant part, "A judge ... shall maintain professional competence in [the law]."
3. Article V, Section l-a(6)A of the Texas Constitution provides, in relevant part, that a judge shall not engage in "willful or persistent conduct" that " is clearly inconsistent with the proper performance of his duties or casts public discredit upon the judiciary or administration of justice."
4. Section 33.00l(b)(l) of the Texas Government Code provides, "For the purposes of Section 1-a, Article V, Texas Constitution, 'willful or persistent conduct that is clearly inconsistent with the proper performance of a judge's duties' includes: (1) willful, persistent, and unjustifiable failure to timely execute the business of the court, considering the quantity and complexity of the business; ... "
5. Section 33.00l(b)(5) of the Texas Government Code provides, "For the purposes of Section 1-a, Article V, Texas Constitution, 'willful or persistent conduct that is clearly inconsistent with the proper performance of a judge's duties' includes: ... (5) failure to cooperate with the commission; ... "
6. Rule 7(b) of the Texas Rules of Judicial Administration provides that a district judge shall "rule on a case within three months after the case is taken under advisement."
CONCLUSION 
Based upon the record before it and the factual findings recited above, the Texas State Commission on Judicial Conduct has determined that the Honorable Gena Slaughter, Judge of the 19151 District Court in Dallas, Dallas County, Texas should be publicly reprimanded for:
(1) her failure to comply with the law and maintain professional competence in the law when she failed to timely execute the business of her court by:
(a) failing to rule on motions in a timely matter in the Reiss Case; and
(b) being ordered to rule on those motions in the Reiss Case through two writ of mandamus opinions by the Dallas Court of Appeals; and
(2) failing to cooperate with the Commission's investigation, in violation of Canons 2A and 3B(2) of the Texas Code of Judicial Conduct, and Section 33.00l(b)(l) &
(5) of the Texas Government Code. Judge Slaughter's failure in these respects constitutes a willful and persistent conduct that is clearly inconsistent with the proper performance of her duties and cast public discredit upon the judiciary and administration of justice, in violation of Article V, Section 1-a( 6)A of the Texas Constitution. 
The Commission has taken this action pursuant to the authority conferred it in Article V, Section 1-a(8) of the Texas Constitution in a continuing effort to protect the public and promote public confidence in the judicial system.

Porn and music disrupt Dallas County court hearing.
During the pandemic, courts across the country, including in Dallas County, began hearing cases via Zoom and other live-streamers.
It’s been more than four years now since COVID-19 forced the option, and many courts have continued to offer the medium for some hearings.
So you’d think that by now, everyone would have figured out a way to secure an online hearing so that it can’t be disrupted by pranksters.
Earlier today, I observed a hearing in State District Judge Gena Slaughter’s virtual courtroom that was disrupted several times by people who weren’t media, plaintiffs, defendants, or attorneys.
The hearing attracted more than the usual amount of attention.
It focused on West Dallas resident Janie Cisneros’ lawsuit that, if she won, would compel the city to take her request to consider shutting down the GAF shingle factory in West Dallas.
Slaughter continued to remind people to mute themselves, but that didn’t stop one person from logging in repeatedly to share porn and another (or perhaps the same one considering there were 40 people logged in at one point) from playing music for several seconds before Slaughter was able to kick him or her out.
A visibly frustrated Slaughter apologized at the end of the hearing, saying she was “very disappointed” that some had joined only to disrupt.
She supports providing the general public better access to court proceedings, she said, because “it’s a very important right.”
“Unfortunately, I can’t find a control setting that would allow me to automatically block the video of anybody but the attorneys,” she said. “I’m frustrated.”
For what it’s worth, the state’s judicial branch website has some recommendations, including streaming the Zoom hearing to a court YouTube account.
This would allow the judge to provide the Zoom details only to the lawyers, witnesses, plaintiffs, and defendants while still providing the public access to the proceedings.

Feels weird to share here last year CJC comics when the current one was held last week and I haven't draw any prompt... This is the first year I'm skipping CJC week since I'm into this ship but I've been terribly busy and also I feel I've already done all the prompts several times... time for a rest, I suppose.

Group in charge of Google's $100M for news outlets lays out its governance model | National News - Journal Global Web - BLOGGER https://www.merchant-business.com/group-in-charge-of-googles-100m-for-news-outlets-lays-out-its-governance-model-national-news/?feed_id=134796&_unique_id=669814b78cd59 OTTAWA – The group Google asked to distribute $100 million to news outlets in Canada has publicly released its governance model, which it says focuses on sustainability, equity and innovation within the industry.The Canadian Journalism Collective submitted plans to Canada’s broadcasting regulator this week outlining the structure of the board that will ultimately oversee the funds. That submission was made public on Wednesday.The Canada Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission requested the information as part of the public consultations to enforce the Online News Act, which compels tech companies to enter into agreements with news publishers for the use of their content.The collective has had limited time to develop this novel framework under a law that is being closely watched by other countries that want to implement something similar, including the United States.It will ultimately be up to the CRTC to determine if the collective’s plan meets its expectations. If the governance model is satisfactory, then the CRTC will grant Google an exemption from the law.This is a pivotal step as the journalism industry comes together to ensure the money is distributed equally, regardless of the business model or self-interest of any individual media outlet.The CJC says its board will be compromised of 19 directors, including eight members representing publishers, eight members representing broadcasters and three independent members.Requirements for the 19 positions include ensuring there is representation from large and small media outlets, startups, non-profit outlets and Indigenous, Black, racialized, francophone and official language minority groups.The governance model also includes two separate councils, which would make recommendations on behalf of publishers and broadcasters, as well as an executive committee that would appoint non-voting advisers to the board.CBC, which is guaranteed up to $7 million from the pot of money, will have a seat on the board and executive committee, but its representative will sit as an observer without any voting powers.The collective also intends to appoint an ombudsman to whom the public and board can voice concerns, and a dispute resolution committee that would have the power to investigate grievances.“The proposed high-level governance structure that the CJC-CCJ has submitted to the CRTC seeks to implement the Act and regulations by promoting sustainability, equity and innovation in the Canadian news ecosystem,” Jean La Rose, a spokesperson and interim board director of the collective, said in a statement.The governance structure will allow each member to have equal representation and encompass all types of news organizations, small and large, urban and rural, La Rose said.Last year, Google agreed to keep news on its search engine and pay Canadian news publishers $100 million annually, indexed to inflation, in order to be exempt from the Online News Act.Once Google gets an exemption, the company is set to deliver the money within 60 days to the collective, which would then elect its board and distribute the money to eligible news outlets.“Our submission is the first step in outlining how the CJC-CCJ will establish policies and procedures that meet objectives and maintain the highest standards of integrity, independence, transparency and accountability,” La Rose said.“Our governance structure includes at-large and independent roles and officers to foster the trust of the Canadian public.”This structure would continue to be shaped throughout the CRTC consultation and through engagement with stakeholders, the collective said.It also promises to support emerging news organizations, smaller media markets and innovative business models while ensuring marketplace fairness.
“As the digital news environment and consumer behaviours shift, no one existing business model should be disproportionately represented at the expense of innovation, sustainability and geographic outreach,” the submission to the CRTC reads.The collective was founded in May by an interim group of publishers and broadcasters that represent French-language, community and Indigenous news, along with outlets that specifically represent Black and under-represented Canadians.Google chose the CJC to handle the media money, saying in a blog post last month that its principles were in alignment with the company’s. Those included diversity, a robust government structure, a high level of transparency and assurance that as much funding as possible would go to news organizations.A second collective led by big media players, called the Online News Media Collective, lost out in Google’s selection process.Earlier this year, Google put out an open call to news organizations that wish to receive compensation under the Online News Act, and about 1,500 outlets applied for the cash.The collective will eventually review all news publishers that responded to the open call, and distribute the funds to publishers that meet the criteria as laid out in the law and regulations.The money will be distributed proportionately based on how many full time-journalists the companies employ.This report by The Canadian Press was first published July 17, 2024.Group in charge of Google’s $100M for news outlets lays out its governance model | National News #Group #charge #Googles #100M #news #outlets #lays #governance #model #National #NewsSource Link: https://www.kelownadailycourier.ca/news/national_news/article_73f3798a-3405-5493-acb8-cdc4d85b754e.htmlGroup in charge of Google’s $100M for news outlets lays out its governance model | National News: http://109.70.148.72/~merchant29/6network/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Group-in-charge-of-Googles-100M-for-news-outlets-lays.jpg #GLOBAL - BLOGGER OTTAWA – The group Google asked to ...

BLOGGER - #GLOBAL OTTAWA – The group Google asked to distribute $100 million to news outlets in Canada has publicly released its governance model, which it says focuses on sustainability, equity and innovation within the industry.The Canadian Journalism Collective submitted plans to Canada’s broadcasting regulator this week outlining the structure of the board that will ultimately oversee the funds. That submission was made public on Wednesday.The Canada Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission requested the information as part of the public consultations to enforce the Online News Act, which compels tech companies to enter into agreements with news publishers for the use of their content.The collective has had limited time to develop this novel framework under a law that is being closely watched by other countries that want to implement something similar, including the United States.It will ultimately be up to the CRTC to determine if the collective’s plan meets its expectations.
