The Las Vegas Review-Journal has announced that it will
charge readers for access to online content.
Starting
Sept. 5, visitors to reviewjournal.com and the Review-Journal’s
mobile app can have five free story views over 30 days at no charge. Access to
additional content will require a paid subscription. A digital subscription
will cost $8.99 per month.
The
Review-Journal will offer an introductory digital-only subscription rate of 99
cents per month for two months, the paper says.
“The
Review-Journal’s website has provided excellent coverage of the valley at no
charge for more than 20 years,” said Glenn Cook, the Review-Journal’s executive
editor. “But employing reporters, editors, photographers, videographers and
artists to tell stories has never been free. In order to preserve the depth and
quality of coverage Review-Journal readers expect, our digital readers will
have to join our print readers in paying a modest subscription fee.”
Print
subscribers, who already can read the Review-Journal’s print replica e-edition,
will receive unlimited digital access at no additional charge.
