A remuneração dos jornalistas pelas plataformas de notícias digitais com base no direito autoral

Abstract

The present academic research was intended to address intellectual property rights, but precisely in the knowledge surrounding copyright. In this way, we sought to understand how journalists are remunerated by having their news published on digital platforms, from the perspective of copyright concepts. In view of this, the objectives outlined are to understand all the conceptual aspects of copyright, as well as the protection of intellectual property, how the international protection of these rights takes place, who is the author, in the doctrinal view, as well as what are the protected works, their requirements and characteristics. Afterwards, the problems surrounding the new information and communication technologies will be analyzed, as well as the adequacy of copyright in the face of the informational society. Finally, initiatives to regulate and protect journalists' remuneration by countries such as Australia, Brazil, as well as the European Union will be addressed, so that they can keep up with innovative technologies and business models for reproducing news in newspapers. The research is explanatory, and in it the documentary technique was used, since its entire theoretical framework is based on books, doctrinal positions, articles, and internet documents, in which it starts from a raised hypothesis, which through the analysis of the mentioned points, it will be possible to reach a factual conclusion. Therefore, given the importance of the copyright issue, in fact, it is concluded that legislative updates on the remuneration of journalists by digital platforms have negatively affected users/consumers of journalistic content on the internet and new legislative discussions are relevant to achieve this. seek a balance between the right to information, as well as due recognition to journalists who produce digital content.
