摘要

The news sentimentalists among us savor the best newspapers — their lovely turns of phrase, their bold reportage-as if they were rare and fragile wines. Which, these days, they are. The stresses on the grand old news institutions, compounded now by the evidence that online ad revenues are not immune to atmospheric changes, lead to arndesperate groping for a solution, any solution. So look for some news organizations to lock up many of their online offerings and make them available only to paying customers. Out of all the imperfect scenarios available, the least imperfect version looks to me like this: A bunch of news organizations get together, create a site walled off from the prying Web - crawlers of Google (and the momentary affections of the casual Web surfer), charge subscription fees, and split these fees and any ad revenue.rn"Can I imagine content going behind a pay wall?" asks Tom Curley, the CEO of the Associated Press. "Absolutely. And, yes, we are in conversations about that." These conversations with other content players are informal, he admits. And a gazillion issues arise. One is that the Associated Press has a licensing agreement with Google, the particulars of which Curley would not detail, that won't expire until December. (A Google spokeswoman declined to comment.) It's also unclear how this would work for a newspaper or a TV operation that does not want to wholly destroy exist -ing traffic. And this solution may not be one-size-fits-all: The Wall Street Journal gets away with charging; The New York Times might; a less illustrious paper a tenth as big may not.
