13E: Murdoch's paywall

Read the last page of the handout - Newspapers: The effect of online technology (from 'Should News be Free').

Also read this blog on the Times paywall three years on.

Answer these two questions on your blog:

1) Do you agree with James Murdoch that the BBC should not be allowed to provide free news online?

2) Was Rupert Murdoch right to put his news content (The Times, The Sun) behind a paywall?

Finish for homework if you don't get it done in the lesson.
