As annoying as this is, I hope it will push news outlets to consider other funding models. Getting subscribers to pay for journalism seems much healthier than subsisting on ad clicks.

The Globe kinda does this with their soft paywall. The ex-Irving papers in NB seemed to do pretty well with their hard paywall.

They're all trying to get people to pay for journalism, but not enough people are paying.

CTV News doesn't provide membership/subscription options. Many newspapers don't even have a soft paywall.
