Date: February 4th, 2026 11:06 AM Author: Charles Tyrwhitt Dad Don't see a future for newspapers. Not sure how most still survive. People want news but no one wants to pay for it. One wants to be sad about it but given how the newspapers evolved in the last few decades, I can't bring myself to shed a few tears.

Date: February 4th, 2026 1:41 PM Author: Charles Tyrwhitt Dad Even if the NYT swung to the center and was intellectually honest and had a wide variety of views represented, no one would pay for it either. Everyone wants their news free. I read a few substacks and I watch Halperin and a few other podcasters when I can, but these journalists and writers still have to accept that 90% of their audience will be freeloaders. It's a ton of creative content generation that must add up to little more than a few pennies per reader/viewer. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5830882&forum_id=2#49646512) |

Date: February 4th, 2026 1:53 PM Author: gunneratttt gives free BJs to brocolli haired zoom (gunneratttt) i paid for a couple papers for years but the biased reporting caused me to unsubscribe. i felt there was almost a moral duty to subscribe because of the value of good journalism. but they lost that.
i wonder if they would have survived if they hadn't lost their way. maybe they actually survived longer as people began subbing to stuff aligned with their own biases. either way, the ship has sailed now, no one is coming back and they're only chugging along because of boomers who forgot they're subscribed like AOL. |

I unsubbed to all during George Floyd Summer of Love and never went back. Before then I was a Wholesome Chungus supporting real journalism.
But ljl at WaPo I have never read a single thing in that rag that wasn't deeply dishonest. I maybe saw one article that didn't tell a lie from the early 90s in the archive. It was a long time ago. |

Date: February 4th, 2026 1:59 PM Author: Paging Doctor Shabbos Goy (American Cattle Goy) This is cr. Paying for news would be like subscribing monthly to your favorite band that hasn't put out a good CD since 1997. I love my favorite band but I'm not sure why I would hand them over more money, especially when the last 10 CDs sucked. I want to read news but I would never give them any money for it. Most news is a puff piece anyways about bigfoot sightings or the local fair. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5830882&forum_id=2#49646563) |
