If you can’t share real news people will just share fake news instead.
If you want people to consume quality news from somewhat reputable sources, you don’t make it a pain and disincentivize the main sources of traffic from sending traffic that way.
Reliable news are important and they do need funding, but that’s the absolute worst way to go about it. Of course if you put barriers people will cheap out and get what they can get for free. That’s why we need government funded news like CBC, BBC and others. It’s an essential public service, treat it like one instead of trying to let private companies do what’s most profitable. Quality reporting isn’t profitable, shocking headlines are.

Remember this if the CPC win the next election, they’ve been gunning for the CBC for years.
To the surprise of absolutely no one.
