There's no need to play the edgelord here. Your average person does not have $200USD/month lying around for news. Even cable packages aren't that expensive. But they don't need that much either, just budgeting $15 a month is more than sufficient to have a favorite paid substack, and several other free substacks. Most people don't have the time to analyze that much information. Its sufficient to know that viewpoints other than MSM-peddled-narratives exist, that gives people a healthy skepticism, without needing to spend days each month just analyzing the news.
