Ditto “group” subscriptions from government subsidized foundations, universities, etc.

Just more MSM skullf*cking.

Imagine joining a fitness club and as part of your membership you were to recieve an online subscription while you are a member. Being a tennant of a condo complex or apartment building and having a complimentary online subscription while you live there.

The NYT committed early to RSS, to Twitter, online video, has experimented with multiple formats, etc. While I may not agree with all of the strategy, it feels like you and I are seeing two different things and I’d like to get a better sense of your view.

As a paper publication all its life, it has yet to understand the nature of the beast called digital publishing. What is worse is that it does not have an open mind and thinks that no practical solution can come from the outside. It is a case of not thinking out of the box.
