Either it's not paywalled for them or it's still good journalism and maybe journalists shouldn't work for free.

No one implied they should work for free. In fact (according to rumors) there are several alternatives for writers to monitize their content without completely walling off the articles.

Google "how writers monitize their content on the internet" it should give you some good insights, as it's not a very complicated topic.

Oh fascinating, the top response is working for a subscription-based publication that has editorial staff and pays them. The second is freelancing for a subscription-based publication by selling articles to them. Wow.

You're clearly so skilled with reading, but maybe if you can count past two, you can see the alternatives I mentioned previously.

You mean the rumored several alternatives, that I asked you to elaborate on, and you told me to Google? Yes, clearly you listed specifics.

Buddy, I really won't explain something to you that you should be able to figure out in less than 8 seconds. If you truly can't figure out that advertising, sponsorships, and affiliate programs exist there's nothing I can do to help you You're clearly challenged and I wish you luck going foreward..
