Times and Sunday Times moving to pay models in June
The Times and Sunday Times, both UK journalist outlets, will begin charging for Web site access starting this summer. The two publications are the first two of potentially four News International publications (the other two being The Sun and News of the World) to start with a pay model. Though James Harding, editor of The Times, acknowledges in a BBC News article that the move to paywalls is a risk, he tells the BBC, “But it’s less of a risk than just throwing away our journalism and giving it away from free.”
