Would You Pay 20¢ To Read One Wall Street Journal Article?
As more news consumers have started to migrate online instead of getting their news in dead-tree form, this has caused problems for the entire business model of publishing. It raises an interesting question, though: what if there were a news equivalent of buying the one song you like from a new album for 99¢ or less? That option may be coming soon to our national newspapers like the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, andWashington Post.

And how and who has time to track and verify what was read and billed ? #4 Most of what is passed off as journalism is garbage. Not paying for trash.
