The Globe Sets Itself Free


At last. The Globe & Mail has finally realized that trying to get people to pay for access to their online version isn't going to work. It's just not worth it.

Finally the paper has followed last year's lead by The New York Times and transformed its internet edition into a free paper.

The good news is that you'll now get unfettered access to the likes of Jeffrey Stevens, Lawrence Martin and John Ibbitson. The bad news is that you'll now get unfettered access to the likes of Christie Blatchford, Marcus Gee, Rex Murphy and Margaret Wente.
