Forgetting for a moment that these notions go against the without rhyme and reason of fair use exception, and the reciprocal nature of arrangement in which these newspapers receive nontrivial amount of potentially magnetizable traffic. What I take most take issue with is the shortsighted top down solution you seem to support and advocate for, maybe if these entities can't sustain themselves they should be let to die instead of having government (which they supposedly keep watch of) create life support for them delaying the inevitable.
I'm not sure how this totally nonsensical and erroneous reading of the post and subsequent comments have hijacked this thread, so at the risk of being patronizing allow me to explain this as simply as I can:
Spain passed a law that "forces" news publishers to collect a levy from online news aggregators.
Online news aggregators will be fined if they aren't paying the copyright levy (yeah it's that ridiculous).
Nor publishers or aggregators can optout of this arrangement.
Google is stopping the Google News aggregation in Spain. They are NOT GEO-BLOCKING IT.
