"There is a hugely important role for our democracy in independent, fact-based, substantiated journalism. I care less about who does it than that it continues to get done. I think it’s unlikely that paywalls in and of themselves will provide the answers journalism needs."
Bill Grueskin, dean of academic affairs, Columbia University’s J-School,
on the question of newspaper paywalls
I’m a big fan of Prof. Grueskin. I’m torn on the paywall stuff, but I agree with him it won’t solve all of journalism’s financial woes. It will, I think, be part of an intricate puzzle. And that’s OK with me. (via
