[GTALUG] The truth is paywalled (was Re: Looks like IBM is planning to eliminate RHEL)

[Dave Collier-Brown]

Hmmn, Reuters and Associated Press are middlemen, while NPR, ABC, CBS and the Conversation are "leaf" sites, as are the highly opinionated sites like NYT, WaPo, G&M, NatPo and Toronto Sta.

I wonder if there is a relationship to the "paywallness"?

As someone much smarter than me recently wrote, "The Truth is Paywalled but the Lies are Free".

I call absolute bullshit on this assertion, which I have seen in meme form at a number of locations.

It's provably wrong.
