CNN will introduce a “metered” paywall early next month for online readers, part of a broader plan by chairman/CEO Mark Thompson to restructure the news giant into profitability.
The plan was first reported Thursday by the New York Times. A CNN spokesperson declined to comment.
The metered paywall will require frequent users to pay for access after clicking on a set number of articles. The model is common among major news outlets, including the New York Times and the New Yorker.
CNN first hinted at the plan in July, when it said it would be launching a digital subscription service as a part of a restructuring that included the layoffs of some 100 staffers. Details were not disclosed, but sources who spoke with the Times indicated CNN will start with a low-cost option.

I don’t read it free.
They’re dead, Jim.
anyone who has cable tv already does
Just go into your cache and delete all the CNN cookies. Then, keep reading, if you must, for free.
OTOH, I don’t read CNN so no biggie.
didn’t they go down this route when they brought chris wallace over and it failed?
If they actually had news to report, I might pay for them, but they don’t.
Didn’t they try something similar before?
Who is CNN?:)
That will work out welll
Lololololol…pay for that tripe?😵💫😵💫😵💫
If they are struggling when they give it away, what happens when they make someone pay for it?
I didn’t know there was a market for lies, distortions and obfuscations.............
Wake me when they start paying viewers to watch.
Who in their right mind would pay for biased news? I quit reading my hometown paper online because they paywalled it.
“CNN Plans to Paywall News Content”
CNN will almost certainly learn what people REALLY think of their ‘reporting’. Pass me some popcorn please.
I don’t click on CNN articles anywhere else or links if their articles are posted here.
I thought they were only viewable in airport waiting rooms.
I still remember the good old days when Leftist lies were free.
The Minneapolis Star & Tribune tried a paywall for a few years at least with many articles with some freebies thrown in but it now looks like no paywall at all.

If they would tell the truth they would be making money.
