    I'm pretty sure that's their normal offer to join…

    Same for the Age

    So it's not really a bargain…

    Nope, considering it was free a week ago… Not a deal. Shame, I liked the site.

  • No deal, internet news is free and always will be, sorry Rupert.

      News costs money to produce. Would you rather pay for it yourself, or worry about who might be paying for it and why?

        Have you noticed all the advertising on each page?

        • +1

          I'm sure a buck a day or whatever they charge comes nowhere near to covering their costs.

          By the way I wouldn't read Murdoch if he paid me.

  • +1

    no offense

    I won't pay a cent for news of this quality

    don't know what got into their mind charging for pay-per-view

      LOL

      "The Australian is the ‘go to’ source for every right-wing supporter and feral media commentator in the country. It feeds its conservative bullshit to the shock jocks and the awaiting throng of drooling journalists who would rather do the boss’s bidding than report the truth." Source: AIM

  • Did I read that correctly - The Australian will pay me $1/day to read their Fox-light Murdoch madness?

    Sorry. No thanks.

  • +2

    Aha hahahahaha can't believe people actually read that Murdoch rubbish.. Oh wait, Abbott was voted in, shows the amount of idiots in this country who are manipulated so easily by certain media outlets. Hint - there's plenty of places to get your news from, you don't just need to reply on news.com.au (and associated sites/papers).

    The sooner that guy dies, the better for Australia and the world.

    • harsh but +vote

        Yeah I thought about toning it down, but ah well. Stupid me writing it on my iPad and didn't think to proof read it for autocorrect errors.. That line was meant to be 'you don't need to rely on news.com.au' not 'reply'.

    • I agree. Pity Wendi couldn't finish it off….

      What a ridiculous load of tosh.
      It's that sort of pathetic, sneering, arrogant posturing that has got the rabid Abbott-haters where they are today; completely out of touch-and out of government- yet still convinced that they are so much smarter than absolutely everyone else. Hardly suprising then that the stumbling, shambolic collapse of the Green/Labor government (in a landslide election loss) doesn't seem to have prompted any effective self-examination.

    • Watch tax payer funded left leaning (99%) ABC instead then.

      Murdoch is private enterprise. You have a choice to read Fairfax instead. Nobody forcing you

      • From The Conversation Fact Check

        News Corp Australia titles account for 59% of the sales of all daily newspapers, with sales of 17.3 million papers a week, making it Australia’s most influential newspaper publisher by a considerable margin.

        Among capital city and national daily newspapers, which are by far the most influential in setting the news agenda, News Corporation titles accounted for 65% of circulation in 2011. Fairfax Media, the next biggest publisher, controlled just 25%.

        • All you have done is state that people prefer News Ltd newspapers by a massive margin.

          Like dissin states (and which you managed to avoid addressing by merely quoting sales figures) nobody forces anyone to buy News Ltd (or Fairfax) newspapers, even though each company produces a competing daily in most states.

          You also use the emotive term "control" (Fairfax Media, the next biggest publisher, controlled just 25%) as if News Ltd had been allocated or monopolised its market share, when common sense says that Fairfax has the same opportunity to dominate the market as News Ltd does.

          A more honest way of interpreting your quoted figures would be to say that Fairfax products do not interest many people. Hardly News Ltd's fault in a free, competitive market, now is it.

        • -1

          Also might be a little more honest to note that The Conversation is funded by universities, who only an idiot would deny are left-leaning, and who receive enormous taxpayer-assistance.

          Also would take even more honesty to note that The Conversation is headed up by failed Fairfax Age editor Andrew Jaspan. Again, only an idiot would deny that The Age and Andrew Jaspan skew heavily to the left.

          You seem to leave some interesting facts out when whining about Rupert Murdoch. Murdoch doesn't need my taxes to publish his papers.

        • +1

          It would be even more honest to focus on the numbers quoted by tommyc, instead of their source.

          Apart from your obvious bias, do you have any other source, or hard numbers to dispute those from The Conversation?

        • -2

          As stated already, the only thing the numbers convey is that people choose to buy a lot more News Ltd papers than Fairfax, in a competitive, free market. The surreal thing is that you seem to have a problem with this.

      • Yes, how dare the ABC report more facts than News Corp.. Therefore they must be a leftie! (Ever thought they seem more left, because majority of news in MSM is so far right?)

        • -2

          ABC is real news…. like Abbott Abbott abbott , 24/7 global warming, and some Indonesian ex game show host/backbencher who is an expert on diplomacy (not) and asylum seekers.

          Yep, you can tell you're a Liberal supporter.

    This is of no use to me for two reasons:

    1. The Oz is rubbish
    2. I can't wipe my backside with an e-newspaper

    LABOR IS TEH WORSTEST EVER! JOOLIAR ETC!
    WE STOPPED SO MANY BOATS THAT WE HAVE TO NOW START FLYING PEOPLE HERE JUST TO SEND THEM HOME !
    GEN-Y UNIONS INVENTED DRUNKEN PUNCHUPS IN 2011!

    There, I just saved you four bucks.
