@bigbangbear.bsky.social: I will only pay for the games. Lucky past two years I have gotten the games rate for the All Access package. The Athletic is a nice bonus. Rarely read the NYT with it.

7/1/2024 will go down as one of the worst days in American history, and this is how the NYT website was covering it yesterday, under seven (7)(VII) articles about Biden's age.

I will only pay for the games. Lucky past two years I have gotten the games rate for the All Access package. The Athletic is a nice bonus. Rarely read the NYT with it.

See that still gives them money and audience. That people will not suffer a small inconvenience when so much is at stake is really sad.

I get your point, but versus a full price subscription it is very little. Audience isn’t increased by only using the Games app and occasionally The Athletic. Not sure how the problem is solved since it appears a lot of the US media is doing the same viewing from Canada (1/2).

Also, loss of readership seems to just be replaced by RW investors that eventually drive decisions (Happened in many countries not just US). This further complicates the choice to cancel as a protest in my mind. So I’d rather pay much less only to make a point than cancel completely. (2/2)
