* not comics: I'm not sure I know exactly what the hell is going on
here regarding a newspaper deciding which content goes behind a paywall, but there's a crossed-arm, shake-one's-head feel to how it's presented. Usually when I read about stuff like this I'm more about the general model being broken -- the idea that a newspaper should operate to maximize profits, all other standards be damned -- than any specific permutation/outcome of that policy. I mean, it is fairly horrifying to think of a newspaper only serving rich customers, for instance, but we've had this near societal-wide rejection of any value other than bottom-line profit for years and years now, so I'm not sure what people thought would happen as this operating principle began to metastasize in our media.
* finally,
this is adorable.
