Why doesn’t it scale? People used to have to pay for access to all of these articles (and still do BTW). It’s actually become way cheaper to read a wide variety of sources.

Your statement comes off as really entitled.

I don't consume things that I'm required to pay for and then don't pay for. So no on the entitled issue.

Paid journalism (by the consumer) is getting harder and harder. Do you have a good example of journalism today that is paid for by the consumer (i.e. monetarily) that is good journalism?

(And I consume a wide variety of sources to specifically try to pick up on bias, and oh boy!)

WSJ, The Economist, Harpers, Pro Publica, etc.
