CNN to put up paywall on their website
« on: November 03, 2017, 07:41:26 PM »
This is hilarious. Just saw on Drudge that CNN has decided to put up a paywall on their website.    :rotf: :rotf:

Here is the link, it is the Wall Street Journal and there is a paywall so you may have to go to drudge and click on that link like I did.

I ain't no marketing genius and even I can see that this is going to be a massive flop.  I guess CNN wants to go bankrupt as soon as possible.   :lmao:

Guess they will figure that out when it ultimately fails.

They are obviously racists and elitest scum who are attempting to keep the poor and minorities out of their website. Regan tore down walls and CNN is putting them up. How divisive.

Same here -- the same problems as their TV programs.
