It’s very simple. You can not call yourself “news” and not come under news regulations.

Def should be that simple.
Unfortunately, over the last 2 decades. We have seen a huge effort from the right wing. To remove that limitation. Mainly funded from the same billionaires that fund such crap in the US where such rules do not exist.
The left needs to work hard to ensure these challenges are both identified and publicised for what they are. An attempt tp licence lieing to the public.

And the politically sane should be pushing back hard. If you can legally have misinformation labelled “news” we have a massive problem.
