CNN charges for access, leaving misinformation free

The trend of generally trustworthy news sources charging for access, leaving
everyone unwilling (or UNABLE) to pay resorting to free sources -- which
generally includes most sources of misinformation -- is deeply damaging.

CNN wants "some" (I assume this is geographic) users to pay a monthly fee
beyond "some" number of free articles.

It is my hope that this move fails miserably and that CNN's advertisers
rebel against this action. Just say no.
