'New York Times' to charge online readers starting in 2011

10:28 AMY

The New York Times says it will begin charging readers for full access to its website starting in 2011.

The Times said Wednesday that it will use a metered system that will allow free access to a certain number of articles and then charge users for additional content. The price was not disclosed.

Two earlier attempts to charge for online content were scrapped. One in 1996 charged for access to the website outright, while a program to charge for Times columnists was abandoned in 2007.

I hope we'll still be able to get those fake articles that bloggers make up and post all over the inter net for free.
