The Uber scandal has not only involved the top leader of the porn policy, the media has also been involved in this affair. According to the leaked documents, Uber asked media publishers to lobby on its behalf by offering them valuable shares in the company.
It is learned that the company has targeted the owners of several media such as the Daily Mail of the United Kingdom, Les Echos of France, La Repubblica and L'Espresso of Italy, Die Welt and Bild of Germany and the Times of India.
Me mediat gjermane është diskutua që ata të ndikojnë tek politika e brendëshme për të fituar mbështetje dhe ndikim politik në Gjermani dhe në Bruksel, bën të ditur The Guardian në informacionin prej 124,000 dokumentave që kanë publikuar.
Mësohet se në dimrin e 2015-2016 kompania bëri atë që e quajti një marrëveshje "cash plus media për kapital" me botuesin kryesor të gazetave Axel Springer , pronar i Die Ëelt dhe Bild, duke shitur një aksion prej 5 milionë dollarësh. Marrëveshja nuk u bë publike deri në vitin 2017. Uber gjithashtu njoftoi një partneritet të ngjashëm me Bennett, Coleman & Co, pronar i grupit Times of India, në fillim të 2015.
Dokumentet tregojnë se për Uber, paratë e gatshme ishin dytësore ndaj ndikimit të kompanive mediatike në korridoret e pushtetit. Uber po përballej me ndalime në të dy vendet në kohën e marrëveshjeve: në Gjermani u akuzua se operonte në mënyrë të paligjshme në qytetet kryesore.
Uber gjithashtu i bëri thirrje ndikimit të një prej investitorëve të saj të hershëm, manjatit industrial dhe mediatik italian Carlo De Benedetti, për të ndihmuar në marrjen e aksesit te kryeministri i atëhershëm, Matteo Renzi, kur legjislacioni që ndikonte në tregun e taksive po shqyrtohej në fillim të vitit 2016. Skedarët e Uber zbulojnë. De Benedetti ishte botuesi i të përditshmes me ndikim La Repubblica dhe të përjavshmes së lajmeve L'Espresso në atë kohë, tituj që ai i ka shitur që atëherë.
With investors lining up to put money into the company ahead of its IPO, Uber executives discussed attracting those who brought more than just money to the table. It was the political influence of media barons rather than preferential editorial coverage that Uber sought. /CNA.al
