Regardless of political or ideological orientation, only TWO on-line publications have developed a sucessfull paid subscription model..the Wall Street Journal, and oddly enough, Consumer Reports...each has over 650,000 paid subscribers...( the article says 60,000 for the WSJ..it must be a typo)..the major media are pouring hundreds of millions into the black holes of their websites....no way out, but they feel they have to maintain their identity and presense on the web.....but the advertising model doesn't work....
