Here are the main points of the article:
- Only going to be 10 free articles per month
- 454,00 paid subscribers after a year
- Before, free users could have 20 free articles
- The publisher maintained that it will "continue to allow access to a generous amount of free content on the website and across multiple digital platforms".
- The NYT offers three access packages: $3.75 per week for the website and smartphone apps, $5 a week for the website and tablet app, and $8.75 a week for access to everything.
This reflects my impact on my chosen field, because I often read news articles on the internet, and even though I don't read of the New York Times, if a English Newspaper/Magazine, started cutting down on the articles you could read for free, I wouldn't be subscribing due to the lack of money as a student.
I think this also presents social and economic issues, because also, many people might not be able to afford to subscribe to the New York Times to read their articles, as $3.75 a week is quite an amount, when you add it up to every month, or even every year.
