Free online news era on its way out [CNN]

We're all spoiled by the illusion that we can get whatever we want on
the interwebs without having to pay a dime. Fire up the Google, troll
the Twitter, see who's got the most tantalizing links. We all do it,
and we all take it for granted. But you can't have a media ecosystem
in which everyone is aggregating, summarizing and retweeting content
from everyone else. At some point there have to be actual human beings
making phone calls and attending events and pawing through public
documents.
