People like free. But free, ad-supported content often leads to clickbait articles that are low quality. Ad revenue doesn’t responsibly support the costs associated with publishing an article (not even The New York Times survives on ad revenue alone). We launched a paywall because it allows us to pay our writers, editors, photographers, engineers, and artists responsibly. It also allows us to invest in better journalism. If you have additional questions about this, please don’t hesitate to email support@thejuggernaut.com. We’d love to hear from you.
