Canada's National Newspaper Erects Paywall
- The Drum, Tuesday, May 15, 2012 3 AM
Media website The Wall reports that the newspaper says it was moving its plans forward for the paywall in response “to an unpredictable advertising market”, which that has seen both print and digital sales drop this spring at publishers in both North America and Europe. It has not yet announced how much it will charge or how many free articles it will give readers. Like the New York Times, The Globe and Mail will remain open to social media allowing its articles to be widely shared.
