Slate Launches Paid Membership Program

Paywall 2.0?

If you want to get into the new members-only section of Slate, you’re going to have to pay.

This week, the online publication unveiled Slate Plus. While the rest of the site—and the majority of the content—will remain free, the special section will have additional content content for $5 a month or $50 a year.

"It's an opportunity to engage our most loyal audience and talk directly to them with compelling content," general manager at Slate Magazine Brendan Monaghan explained to Adweek.

This is the second attempt by the company to get readers to pay for its goods.
