Media giant News Corporation Ltd intends to charge for all its news websites in a bid to lift revenues, as the transition towards online media permanently changes the advertising landscape.

Just because you charge for access doesn’t mean you own the news. The big stories people worry about will also be covered by other news outlet, and probably even better.
