      Why do you think that journalists don’t deserve to get paid? People on Lemmy are even more entitled than people on Reddit.

      The messages against it can’t be heard without money.

      You shouldn’t need an article to tell you not to exploit people.

        they didn’t say that. you’re making a leap of logic and putting words in their mouth

          Obviously they didn’t say exactly that, but how else are they supposed to earn money?

            They already make money on the ads, and of course you have to make an account, so they sell your info… and then they fire the journalists… I would pay for a good source of real new that didn’t have ads and didn’t sell my info. But they don’t exist.

              What ads? I don’t see any ads.

              Their privacy policy also doesn’t seem too bad compared to most services.

              and of course you have to make an account, so they sell your info… and then they fire the journalists…

              What are you talking about? Do you think a 170 year old newspaper is an exit scam designed to get personal data, sell it, and then fuck off?

              I encountered many New York times articles behind a paywall. I was :o that this wasn’t behind a paywall for me.

              I use archive.md for paywalls.

              I hope the New York times doesn’t sell user data. If it does, public rage can move it from being 1 of the top news sites to the bottom.

                I don’t give a fuck. sell subscriptions, push ads, whatever. but if you deny access based on an ability to pay, what you have to say isn’t worth my time.

                  I can’t believe you’re pushing that dumb take in the same comment that you’re suggesting the newspapers sell subscriptions. The cognitive dissonance is astounding.

                  The internet has made people feel very entitled to every form of content.

                  If you feel these organizations and their posts aren’t worth your time, stop commenting on them like a smug edgelord without actual solutions.

                    I’m not experiencing any cognitive dissonance. I said what I meant.

                  Ads that pay enough are quite terrible for privacy though and why should manipulative ads be the only way you are allowed to finance your news? Plus the fact that a lot of people use adblockers (me included)

                  I agree that paywalls are annoying I also like free stuff, but crying about it like they did is just so entitled.

                    Many of these companies are asking for a substantially high price when someone may want to view an article as low as once or twice a month. NYT has a monthly cost of ~$25/month, is that a fair ask to read the odd article someone happens to post?

        Conversely why do I need to pay to read the opinion section?

              Being a journalist is their job.

              Why do you think that journalists don’t deserve to live by being journalists?

              Why don’t you do your job for free? Why don’t doctors work for free if their job is so important.

              Also, where are your alleged “important messages”? I would like to read them.

              Btw, I had never heard of your Karl guy but he does get paid for his work. Because of course he does. He even has a patreon.

              And I wouldn’t really call talking about speedruns to be important messages.
