† I have a digital subscription, because journalism is dying

* I currently have the Bypass Paywalls Clean extension enabled for this particular site, but I really should consider paying for a digital subscription. My justification is that I read MANY different news sites, and that it's hard to afford all the different sites that I consume from.

__ Indicates sources that I feel provide a somewhat different perspective to the other typical news sites.
