The News Media Alliance, which is doing this lawsuit, is basically another lobbying group from News Corp, Hearst, Sinclair, etc.
Based on just those 3 names alone, you can infer this is not a group of benevolent angels or small-town newspapers. It's companies run by the likes of Rupert Murdoch with previous geographic monopolies and networks of O&O stations that are salty that they don't hold the same stranglehold over information they used to.
Clearly, this is a feigned appeal to get rent-seeking laws in their favor to profit from.
