The New York Times to sell access to unfinished stories?
Gawker got hold of a survey being run on NYTimes.com testing a scenario in which the newspaper charges for premium content. As Gawker points out, this isn’t a far cry from another Times experiment: TimesSelect.
But buried within the piece is a nugget called “FirstLook” which would give paid users a peak at stories before they’re even finished. It reminds me somewhat of TotalFark, the premium account you can pay for at Fark.com that allows you to see submissions before they’ve been green lit for the front page.
