"if you want to get access to the source materials and editorial decisions used to assemble the stories, or to be able to see the journalists at work (for example validating source material), you might pay a subscription. That way people who wanted a deeper understanding could pay to get that."

- motters 16y agoWell, I'm sure there are plenty of newsophiles out there, otherwise there would be no market for 24 hour news TV channels.

I'd bet money that the number of people who watch 24 hour news, who would pay for the services you suggest, is very small indeed.
