Genuine question: do you think all journalism should be done for free?
I can somewhat an understand an opposition to advertising or paywalls. Opposing both is unconscionable.
- criddell 11y agoI have no problem with advertising but I don't want to be tracked. So often these are talked about as a single entity but they really aren't, or at least don't have to be.
- zem 11y agoyou could argue that you support either or both, but draw the line at free publicity for paid journalism
- phaemon 11y agoFor free? I'm not sure those gossip-mongering petty scribblers would do anything for free. But you have me wrong on paywalls: I'd fully support them going paywalled. In fact, I fully support them going off the Web onto their own proprietary network (like the Compuserve and AOL of old) and charging thousands (if not millions) of $CURRENCY a year for access. That would be great.
