Be prepared to dig into your pocketbook if you want online
access to Chicago area newspapers' sites. The free ride,
especially for the out-of-towners, will soon be over.
Back in September, the Daily Herald put in a paywall to view
most of the content at their website.
The Sun-Time Group announced that they'll be doing the same at
all their websites later this week. The Sun-Time Group will
however charge a significantly lower cost than the Daily Herald
is asking for unlimited monthly online access to their site
I'm guessing the Chicago Tribune might wait a couple of months
to gauge the public response before adopting a similar program
in the very near future.

> Online newspaper subscriptions gained traction Tuesday in the
Chicago and suburban market when Sun-Times Media said it will
ask readers to start paying for online content later this week.
Sun-Times Media CEO Jeremy Halbreich said in a memo to employees
that the company will begin “metering” its websites, meaning web
readers will be asked to buy an online subscription after
they’ve read a set number of pages on Sun-Times Media newspaper
sites. Besides the Chicago Sun-Times, those included in the pay
system are the Beacon-News (Aurora), The Courier-News (Elgin),
The Herald-News (Joliet), Lake County News-Sun (Gurnee),
Post-Tribune (Merrillville, Ind.) and the SouthtownStar (Chicago
Heights).

> “Quality journalism is not free,” Halbreich said in the memo.
“We are committed to producing the best locally focused news and
feature stories in the region, and will continuously develop
appropriate business models to support our journalism into the
future. This move is just one of many digital initiatives
currently under way, including the very successful launch of our
Chicago Sun-Times tablet and mobile apps, along with our e-Paper
and e-Reader programs.”

Those papers are grasping at straws. What will happen is that
more free independent online sources of news will spring up and
they'll kill the newspapers that are trying to convert to a paid
digital format. People will choose the free info and the indies
will figure out a way to make money through banner ads, etc.

I guess I was hoping for a Chairman Reinsdorf miracle the way it
happened with Paul Konerko.
But no. Not happening. Not happening in large part because Jake
Peavy, Adam Dunn and Alex Rios killed all hope last season and
kill the payroll next season and for several seasons after that.
Talk about pain: The one Sox player who deserves Sox money as
much as Konerko is gone because of those three thieves. Season
tickets on sale now.
A guy the Sox need and a player the fans want has to leave while
the pariahs stay. Thanks, Jake. Thanks, Adam. Thanks, Alex.
Thanks, Ken.

Guess Erin Andrews will have to get a new wardrobe when she
covers MLB and the Trib writers will have to stop wearing their
Cubs' paraphernalia:
