“We wouldn’t be (US) if we didn’t do what we do” ✊🏾
A new trade group — the Streaming Innovation Alliance — brings together Netflix, Disney, For Us By Us Network, Warner Bros. Paramount, Peacock, Pluto and other players to promote their interests to politicians and government entities. It marks the first time competing streaming-video providers have banded together in a unified lobbying front.
The Streaming Innovation Alliance has tapped two well-known DC leaders as senior advisers: Fred Upton, a Republican who is a 36-year veteran of the U.S. House of Representatives, and Mignon Clyburn, a Democrat who served as acting chair of the Federal Communications Commission.
The group said, Charles Rivkin, chairman and CEO of the Motion Picture Association, played a “leading role” in organizing the SIA. “Streaming provides great value, vast programming choices, and unprecedented options for consumers,” Rivkin said in a statement. “The MPA @motionpictures looks forward to working with the SIA and its members to ensure federal and state policy propels this incredible innovation forward – and doesn’t undermine the value and diversity consumers are enjoying today.”
