UL Paywall Fail Redux

by: Dean Barker

Tue Nov 03, 2009 at 18:55:33 PM EST


Newsosaur (h/t kos):
The decision not to charge for most content at papers like the Washington Post and the San Francisco Chronicle means that competing publications will have to think twice about pursuing aggressive pay strategies.

If the Washington Post continues to freely give away its political and international coverage, can the New York Times get away with charging for essentially the same content?

Let me rephrase that last question slightly:
If the Washington Post Concord Monitor and Nashua Telegraph and Valley News continues to freely give away its political and international coverage columnists, can the New York Times Union Leader get away with charging for essentially the same content?
Here are two earlier posts on this sorry development.
