Notice that the release OMITS the factoid that the paying subscribers DON'T get advertisements.....that's gotta make the advertisers really happy....a schitzoid policy, if you ask me..

Salon has moved into the internet porn market in a disgusting and desperate attempt to stay alive.

It's a panic-driven ploy to be sure--and utterly hopeless in preventing the inevitable disappearance of the office furniture in the coming bankruptcy auction.

BTW, here's a 5-year chart that shows the sickening tumble of Salon Media Group from the $15 per share region straight down to its current penny-stock status.

The time-frame of Salon's nosedive seems to coincide with the recent failure of the American lib-left across all sectors of the national culture.

ROFL. Here at FR there are over 70,000 members, we don't get ads, and we get a heck of a lot more information. And it's more fun. And it costs nothing unless you want to help out with the expenses. And it costs less to run than Salon, too.

Hmmm... the article says that they seem to get 4 million visitors per month, but only 35,000 have subscribed.

That means that only .875% of viewers (that's 7/8 of one percent) pay for the service. I don't know which dictionary that Salon uses, but that hardly fits the definition of "sucessful", unless the subscription is inordinately expensive.

"Subscriptions Now Represent 30% of Salon Revenue"

What's the other 60%? Child porn and prostitution ring?

"Our users have demonstrated their willingness to pay for unique, proprietary articles and Salon's point of view."

You should be thanking God for the inflexibility of the human body because, if they could physically get their heads up their butts, your users wouldn't have to pay to get your "point of view".
