One response to “The separation of news and commerce?”

Oops. I was inspired by Antony’s post to ask how we will pay for journalism:
http://blog.hackbash.com/2008/09/02/how-will-we-pay-for-journalism/I meant to leave a comment here, but I fell asleep. Very rude of me; but in my defence it had got pretty late.
It’s a fascinating debate and one that should be engaging all journalists worried about the profession’s future. Greenslade might well be onto something, but as the commenters on his post rightly point out he doesn’t suggest an alternative revenue model. Journalists need to eat.
As Antony says, we’re experimenting at iCrossing with other ways to fund our trade. I’m not sure we’ve yet found the answer, but it’s good to be eating.
