After this Presidential Campaign, thinking about the media lately. I don't like them. Too much noise, nothing useful for me. I then thought about how much I paid for this experience. $0.
Sure, maybe a $1 or two from my cable bill but for the most part, I paid nothing and the quality was what worth exactly what I paid.
Thought about all the work needed to create useful news. We're talking about staff of thousands of people. And if you want good people, you need to pay them good salaries. None of these free labor stuff but real money to hire real people where this is their full time profession.
How much would you guys pay for useful news per day? What is the worth of useful information to you? To me, if I paid $10 a day and the news helped gain $20 a day of value, it would definitely be worth it. That's about $300/mo for news. But that's just me.
Is there a viable business here? Are there others who think this way other then people who trade stocks?
