The New York Times seems desperate

Screen Shot 2016-03-27 at 11.53.31 pmI have received six to eight over the last ten days emails from The New York Times promoting digital subscriptions. One email is okay but I now have so many they appear desperate. The US$2 a week offer for digital access does not feel like good value in that I can access few news from plenty of sites. Paying US$2 a week for their opinions is not appealing. This is the same reason I don;t pay News Corp. a fee to be told by their opinion writers what to think.

    Dito, I don,t like the ABC (journalists) I won’t be mean and call them “opinion writers” forcing their bias and repetitive views every bleeding night to.. and I’m forced to pay them.. And while i’m here the only thing I can watch on the ABC is that old show the Bill. 3.20pm weekdays, compare that to the ABCs made “crownies” suppose to be about Lawyers but is totally smut bad acting,writing,swearing,sex and just watch that show Mark and try and tell me how we should be so lucky.
