Answer these two questions on your blog:

1) Do you agree with James Murdoch that the BBC should not be allowed to provide free news online?

No, i disagree with what James Murdoch has said. I feel as though by putting a paywall behind BBC News it would break their initial rules which included being informative and in addition to this they are a non profit organisation and so it would not make sense for them to put a paywall behind this. On the other hand i do see how this is a problem for James Murdoch as having such a large competitor release free news can not be good for his own business.


2) Was Rupert Murdoch right to put his news content (The Times, The Sun) behind a paywall?
