Publishers remove paywalls for Covid-19 coverage
Major media organisations abroad have decided to make articles about the Coronavirus free to read, according to Adweek.
US publishers from The Atlantic and The Philadelphia Inquirer to The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg News have made coronavirus coverage available to non-subscribers.
"This is a public health emergency. If we have information that's important for people to read, I'm not sure how ethical it would be to keep that from them if they didn't give me their credit card," Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, told Adweek.
