The Wall Street Journal has begun making editorial and opinion content free on its web site, according to a Reuters story Thursday.
The story stated, “An item in the Wall Street Journal Europe newspaper on Thursday said the company has rolled out a new Web site offering free access to all its editorials and opinion columns. Core news content remains a subscription service.
“The move represents one of the first tangible signs of how Murdoch is putting his stamp on the Wall Street Journal.
“As part of the free offering, video clips are being offered from News Corp.’s Fox news television channel.
“Analysts are keeping a close eye on what Murdoch does with the Journal given his interest in possibly making the entire WSJ online site free to attract more readers and advertisers.”
