I am about to be much less well informed.
The Washington Post doubled my weekly fee. $96/yr
The Atlantic went to $79/yr. I asked for any consideration possible and they dropped it to $49.99/digital.
The New Yorker is a firm $99/yr digital.
I understand Capitalism.
I’ve read and happily subscribed to these publications for years. Years.
Now it’s a choice between feeding my brain and life.
I despise those options.
I know.
