Newsquest, a Gannett owned newspaper publisher in the UK, has a brilliant plan: Instead of paying writers, make them pay you. According to The Guardian, Newsquest will charge colleges and student journalists a total of about $180 for the chance to have their work published in one of its 300 regional newspapers.
Colleges that offer journalism courses have been receiving a letter from Newsquest detailing the exciting offer. Students can write for one of the publisher’s papers for eight months, all the they have to do is pay the “registration fee.”
