      Why do you think that journalists don’t deserve to get paid?

      they didn’t say that. you’re making a leap of logic and putting words in their mouth

          They already make money on the ads, and of course you have to make an account, so they sell your info… and then they fire the journalists… I would pay for a good source of real new that didn’t have ads and didn’t sell my info. But they don’t exist.

            I encountered many New York times articles behind a paywall. I was :o that this wasn’t behind a paywall for me.

            I use archive.md for paywalls.

            I hope the New York times doesn’t sell user data. If it does, public rage can move it from being 1 of the top news sites to the bottom.

                  Many of these companies are asking for a substantially high price when someone may want to view an article as low as once or twice a month. NYT has a monthly cost of ~$25/month, is that a fair ask to read the odd article someone happens to post?

              I don’t give a fuck. sell subscriptions, push ads, whatever. but if you deny access based on an ability to pay, what you have to say isn’t worth my time.

                I can’t believe you’re pushing that dumb take in the same comment that you’re suggesting the newspapers sell subscriptions. The cognitive dissonance is astounding.

                The internet has made people feel very entitled to every form of content.

                If you feel these organizations and their posts aren’t worth your time, stop commenting on them like a smug edgelord without actual solutions.

      If you think your message is important, you shouldn’t bury it. Their message isn’t important. Their message is just to bring in money. “Journalists” can fuck right off. A real journalist is someone in the right place at the right time and telling about it because it’s important, not to make a career out of it. Consider Karl Jobst. He’s a journalist. He’s even getting paid. You know what he’s not doing? That’d be sitting in an office promoting a website with a subscription fee. Jobbers are not journalists.

              Think I should be paid for when I just do what’s right when it’s right? Rewarded maybe but idk about as a profession. Open source devs rarely get a payroll and they contribute to the world far more than payroll devs. Information is only good when it’s free.
