CNN to Test Paywall
/It looks like CNN is going to test putting the network’s website behind a paywall.
Starting next month, CNN will begin experimenting with charging some readers for digital access.
The NY Times reports that CNN is planning a so-called metered model, which will require the site’s habitual users to pay after reading a certain number of articles, the people said.
The starting price of a subscription is unclear. But the two people said that CNN would start with an inexpensive offering to gauge customer demand.
A CNN spokeswoman declined to comment.
Does CNN know about incognito mode?
Just asking…
