    I agree with the sentiment, but I’m not sure how to make it work. Journalists need to make a living, but if it’s distributed free, where’s that money going to come from?

        We could but that brings its own moral issues. Can you trust a journalist to be truthful and critical of a government that signs their paycheque?

          We have that in Germany. Everyone pays a monthly fee that is not controlled by the government to create unbiased news and media
