    I thought about it years ago. Came to the conclusion that they would have to be extremely popular. Good journalists have good pays, after all.

    Edit: I think there should be some multi-national free/objective reporting fund to make it possible.

      Mmm, there is something like that in the UK. It’s called a TV licence. The idea stopped working with the advent of the internet. Why pay into the funds when you can get everything you want for free?
