The Wall Street Journal, meanwhile, is staying with Apple
News because the service is bringing in new readers, the New York Post
reported.
The paper based its report on comments from WSJ CEO Robert
Thomson in an earnings call last week. “That Apple News partnership allows us
to focus on that tier of content and bring in a significantly new audience that
we would hope to graduate to a paid WSJ subscription over time,” he said. “And
it is a genuinely different audience. It’s actually, of late, more women than
men. For The Wall Street Journal itself, it’s more men than women.”
In June, The New York Times bailed on the service, saying Apple News
didn’t align with its strategy of building direct relationships with paying
readers.
