Pay for online Content !! Says rupert Murdoch
Are you kidding me!! While there are more and more Newspapers and websites dishing out free news everyday to stay in the competition , Today Rupert Murdoch has announced that he will start charging people $$ to access News online !!
While rupert murdoch has been on the money for so many years and built a vast media empire like no other , this ( new venture of charging people for online news ) is really something to pull off.
I was very much on Alan kohlers side today when he anounced ( on Abc news – Business segment) that Rupert murdoch is going to charge us for online news and wished him good luck with that ( also giving a vey knowing smile)
Watch this space as this plan unfolds. I would most certainly like to follow this story to see how it pans out.
In his own words Rupert murdoch said “Quality journalism is not cheap, and an industry that gives away its content is simply cannibalising its ability to produce good journalism,” he said yesterday as he announced a $3.4bn loss for News Corp, which owns 20th Century Fox, Fox News and Sky TV as well as newspapers.”
Would i pay for online news content ? NO WAY !!
