Journal Sentinel Online Metered Paywall: The Tier that Made Milwaukee Pay Us?

Image via WikipediaBeginning January 4, The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel (JSOnline.com) will introduce a paywall requiring online readers to pony up once they exceed their 20-free-article limit, the paper announced today.

Digital-only access subscribers will pay $2.35 a week in monthly, semi-annual or annual installments. Readers who subscribe to the print edition will have free access to the electronic version. Subscribers to the Sunday-only print edition can pocket an extra nickel by paying $2.30 a week while enjoying full access to the digital version.

The daily is calling its digital version  JS Everywhere, which should help those who sometimes confuse journalism with creative writing. Sports results, section indices, classified ads, home page, videos and the TapMilwaukee channel offerings on JSOnline.com will remain free to all online visitors, the paper announced.
