Much as I want local journalism to thrive, I'm concerned about the attempt to redefine fair use here. A thumbnail, headline, short excerpt or summary, and link to the source article is textbook fair use.
It seems to me the fundamental problem is that local newspapers can't make money from advertising the way they used to because tracking/targeted ads are more profitable and big tech platforms are better at delivering them than anyone else. Other sources of revenue like classified ads have also dried up due to more effective competition.
