What if there is literally no profitable model for digital news? Or none that actually scales and endures without, say, the established readership base and brand of the NYT. This seems...increasingly likely to me?

News should not be a for profit venture to begin with. It’s a public service essential to a functioning democracy, and should therefore be taxpayer funded. News should serve the interests of the people, not corporations. They should all be nonprofit organizations.

This solution, taken to its logical extreme, is no less flawed (and much more dangerous) than the current news structure.

More dangerous than Fox News? Doubt it.

You would put the Trump Administration in charge of dispensing money for news providers?

NPR is partially state funded, and it’s certainly constantly under threat by republicans, but it’s a good model to start with. Definitely not beholden to any party despite being tarred as “liberal”

With all due respect - if all news was indeed taxpayer funded wouldn’t there be a concern that it becomes politically aligned to the ruling party as opposed to being independent?

Countless European broadcasters are state-funded, and they are not beholden in any way to a ruling party. Someone mentioned in this thread that NPR is publicly funded, and it’s editorial line is independent. The US has to stop thinking that government funded equals corruption.

I think I agree. My British friends totally trust BBC. Canadians trust CBC. NPR is not in that league. Would be federal money better spent than on a juvenile wall.
