The publication of the news is being paid for by advertising. Murdoch (Chair of News Corp, Owner of the Wall Street Journal and a number of other papers) can belly ache all he wants but, as Jimmy Leach notes, readers have many choices on where to get their news. Murdoch wants readers to pay a higher price but GM would like to sell cars for a higher price. Producers have the right to set their prices; the market has the right to respond by buying or walking away.
