📰 As some publishers & news organizations block the Wayback Machine from archiving journalism, Fight for the Future is urging action to prevent them from putting the future of the public record at risk.

This is a worldwide issue; not just a USA media Giants one.
Perspective please, for non US citizen readers: Do you have specific breakdowns of global media group Orgs / National Ones / And Serving High Circulation Editors of well known curated news media outlets?
Winning over the Leaders that make decisions about content needed to preserve context and balance is surely the maximum effect way to gain traction?
Would it be possible to negotiate access with newspaper publishers in return for a short (say three year) delay in publishing in the archive? I agree any delay is undesirable, but this would be better than losing the historical record altogether.
Wayback is not the only place that archives. Just saying.
