@patrickworld Here's a non-paywalled version, surprisingly from the Washington Post which is notorious for its paywalls. https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2023/07/14/twitter-is-dying-is-it-time-for-news-subscriptions-to-follow/d8f37c0e-2255-11ee-8994-4b2d0b694a34_story.html

@patrickworld 😂😂

It's Bloomberg. Of course they want your cash.

@patrickworld
My favorites are like the local rag in Helvetica, Nebraska (or something like that) which you're probably going to read a single story from in your entire life.

@patrickworld 😂 stop I can't

@patrickworld @FuchsiaShock The juxtaposition of “...spreading misinformation for free" and “journalists need a way to compete.” Heh.

@patrickworld they're not spreading misinformation for free on twitter, they're actually getting paid for it now

@patrickworld “The opinions here do not necessarily reflect those of the publisher…”

@patrickworld
do as I say
@a13cui

@patrickworld I can't imagine paying to read Bloomberg 🤣

@patrickworld

ESPECIALLY BLOOMBERGS

@patrickworld

Well, it's good that they respect free speech for their columnists, even when they contradict the company policy.

Who knows, it may be a way to know what they readers think about it.

@patrickworld
🤣🤣🤣

@patrickworld @kyleejohnson Perhaps they could also hire editors who read the headlines they write? The way it’s written it makes it sound like journalists have to compete in the spread of misinformation

@patrickworld pretty much says it all, right there.

@patrickworld LOL! But not lol, this is a result of the fact that these profit models demands desperation to work.
@pluralistic

@patrickworld the jokes write themselves

@patrickworld I would honestly subscribe to more news sources if I knew that I would be left alone when I leave. Right now, most sane people are aware that signing up for any magazine, journal or newspaper subscription is selling your soul to the devil. Or more accurately, your email inbox

@patrickworld

Most paywalled materials can be obtained through the wayback machine or your public library.

@patrickworld 😂 level of self-awareness Zero
