Gannett Tries Paywalls on Three of Its Newspaper Sites

Gannett is charging $9.95 a month for online-only subscriptions at all three papers. Kate Marymont, vice president of news for Gannett’s Community Publishing Division, told Ponter, “We know this is not the model, this is a small-scale test.”
The “test” is part of an effort to figure out Gannett’s long-term pay strategy, Marymont said.
