Says the New York Post<\/i><\/a>, the New York Times<\/i> is about to remove the paywall that conceals from public awareness its once-famous (even if smarmy and tendentious) op-ed columnists:<\/p>\n

The New York Times is poised to stop charging readers for online access to its Op-Ed columnists and other content, The Post has learned.<\/p>\n

After much internal debate, Times executives – including publisher Arthur Sulzberger Jr. – made the decision to end the subscription-only TimesSelect service but have yet to make an official announcement, according to a source briefed on the matter.<\/p>\n

The timing of when TimesSelect will shut down hinges on resolving software issues associated with making the switch to a free service, the source said.<\/p>\n

Times spokeswoman Catherine Mathis would only say in an e-mailed statement, “We continue to evaluate the best approach for NYTimes.com.”<\/p>\n

While other online publications were abandoning subscriptions, the Times took the opposite approach in 2005 and began charging for access to well-known writers, including Maureen Dowd, Frank Rich and Thomas L. Friedman.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I’m told there is something like this in real estate — news of dubious value jealously hoarded behind a paywall — but, since I don’t pay for ordinary information<\/a>, I can’t say for sure.
