Bad business model

Call me crazy but I would think if you want to promote your shiny new war correspondent, hiding him behind a paywall, even a free one, is not the way to showcase your talent. I don't care enough about what Joe the Plumber/Citizen Journalist has to say to bother to register to watch a video. I'll just read the highlights in the transcripts instead.

"Let me, uh, think about how to say that again."
Dear God, has he been taking diction lessons from Sarah Palin?
And I see he "liked it back in WWI and WWII when you went to the movies and saw the soldiers..." Oh really, and how OLD was he at the time? Minus 20 years?
At least he may provide a distraction for a while so the grown ups can have more meaningful conversation without the trolls.
One can always hope anyway...

He's a track wreck of a journalist. You'll notice that none of the usual suspects are plugging his segments. It's like they're just waiting for his ten days to be over.
