Dow Jones & Co. plans to sell its newswires content and all of its content to financial institutions directly through The Wall Street Journal website, according to a story from Jennifer Saba at Reuters.

“That could be a tough sell given that many Wall Street banks, whose profitability has been sagging, are currently cutting staff and seeking to save costs.”
