This is a reasonable suggestion. I too hit paywalls on all those papers several times per month and more, but not remotely enough to be worth paying a full subscription to almost any of them save the NYT (which I do have a shared family subscription to). A newspaper passport that allows some form of limited access to all of them, like a multi-resort annual ski passport, would be pretty useful. I would expect said passport to cost in the range of $100-200 per year (though they'd want to bill it at something like $15 per month to avoid sticker shock), and allow me to read a good number of articles from each newspaper, but maybe not an unlimited amount. And the funds from the passport could be distributed proportionally to members based on which papers you actually read most frequently, like how a ski mountain passport works.
