"I have to agree with Dhamre. This DemsRidiots should learn to express himself in a more articulate fashion. You do yourself and your opinion a disservice. The name is "Obama" - and he is not "King." That you include these tidbits makes it hard to take anything else you say seriously." - David Cohn

This month's #JCARN question from @steveouting 'What will shape the future of journo in 1-2 years' http://testkitchen.colorado.edu/2012...
Would love to think @ClayShirky was channeling me. At least I can say "brilliant minds" Just glad it's being discussed http://www.poynter.org/latest-...
Re: Clay Shirky channels David Cohn in comparing NYT paywall to NPR - http://www.poynter.org/latest-...
"Dan Mitchell TrevorButterworth I too will give credit to Clay for figuring out the NYT paywall is akin to NPR's donation system. In the end I'm just glad that somebody of his caliber is also saying it publicly. As I see it - there are two directions for the NYT to go with its paywall and the current incantation will evolve into one of the directions 1. Truly become a membership model in style and name. Donations will come equip with member benefits, tote bags, etc (not sure what the NYT might offer, but we can put on our thinking caps - it's not that hard. 2. Truly become a hard paywall and make the transaction truly about access (it currently isn't). If I were a betting man I'd put money on the first. It won't take long for somebody at the NYT to ask "hey, I wonder how many MORE "members" we can get if we just include X, Y or Z. If the revenue from the increase membership base is more than the cost of X, Y or Z - then it's not a difficult choice to make." - David Cohn
.@jayrosen_nyu Agreed. All notable moments this election cycle have come from debates. Much preferred over notable moments from commercials

Re: Latest numbers indicate New York Times traffic is flat since paywall - http://www.poynter.org/latest-...
"@Roblroy There is some truth to what you say - but the analogy isn't perfect. NPR also has people who pay (KQED is doing their pledge drive right now $12 a month) but for the rest of the public who don't pledge - it's still free. Those people who are getting KQED for free aren't sitting on the grassy hill. In fact, KQED lets them into the concert for free. I think the same happens with the NYT. The NYT couldn't charge everyone - because of the 40 million so far only 400,000 are paying (1%). Actually that 1% is not surprising at all. It's par for the course. And that's my point to your initial comment. I think everyone knew they would get a small percentage of folks to pay. And they have. NPR can get a small percentage of folks to pay as well. There is nothing new in the PayWall. It's really a pledge drive but the NYT doesn't want to call it that. If they were to decide to NOT let everyone into the concert (I don't think I'm on the grassy hill - I get as much content as I want from the..." - David Cohn
Re: Latest numbers indicate New York Times traffic is flat since paywall - http://www.poynter.org/latest-...
"But the New York Times still is free. In that year I visited the same as I did before the "paywall" (not the correct name). They made some money from advertising, sure. But since 44 million people aren't paying - that means the VAST majority are getting the content for free. Your sarcasm is unwarranted." - David Cohn
