Sign up for The Media Today, CJR’s daily newsletter.

So The New York Times‘s newest “Room for Debate” discussion–following on the heels of its “Battle Plans for Newspapers” collection–concerns micropayments. (CJR hosted a similar, if more discussion-oriented, forum last week.) “What Would Micropayments Do for Journalism?” is hosted by the Times‘s Freakonomics blog. Make of that what you will.

Has America ever needed a media defender more than now? Help us by joining CJR today.
