Joshua Topolsky /
@joshuatopolsky@threads.net: Paywalls are not going to save the news industry, but they will definitely make cheap misinfo creators more powerful than they already are. For every 1 person who signs up for this, 100K will simply not read the story. This trend is a disaster for meaningful information on the internet, and a crisis for humanity (I am not kidding).

Simon Owens /
@simondowens@threads.net: COUNTER TAKE: Even with the rise of paywalls, lots of free, high quality information will exist on the internet. I'm highly skeptical of the idea that the rise of paywalls is doing anything to fuel misinformation. In other words, misinformation will continue to thrive regardless of whether paywalls exist. …

Glenn Greenwald /
@ggreenwald: The funniest media story in years was when CNN executives decided they should launch the pay service CNN+ — where people were forced to pay to watch the same CNN personalities that nobody watches for free — and it died after a total of 21 days. Maybe this will last as long: @ingelramdecoucy: Since CNN+ was such a resounding success it was a no brainer I suppose to take that model that people loved and were SUPER receptive to and apply it to the entirety of CNN's output. This is a great plan

Brian Stelter /
@brianstelter: Big news about CNN today: CNN's website, one of the most popular news sites in the world, is starting to ask some users to pay $3.99 a month for access — laying the first bricks in a paywall that should, over time, help foot the bill for CNN's journalism. https://www.cnn.com/...

Simon Owens /
@simondowens@threads.net: CNN just launched its paywall, charging $3.99 a month. It's intentionally vague on how many free article views will trigger the paywall — probably because it's running various A/B tests on the best conversion strategy. I also wouldn't be surprised if it's utilizing a “smart” paywall that's optimized based on personal use. …
