According to a study
by Oxford University’s Reuters Institute Study of Journalism, twice as many
consumers are willing to pay for online news content than a year ago, albeit
the numbers are still relatively low.
The study, conducted by YouGov, polled 11,000 internet users across nine countries, including the U.S.
Findings: Half of global respondents (42% of American) said they had bought a printed newspaper in the last week, but only 5% said they had paid for digital news in the same time period. This is partly because the majority of online newspapers still do not have paywalls.
