@JohnPhilpin This seems to have been written before he bought the Washington Post. It would be interesting to know how that worked out.

I was surprised to get an offer to subscribe to a daily list of the "best" of the WaPo articles. That was a surprise, as I don't pay for their wall. "Wow, they're making their best stuff free?" I thought. So I subscribed.

Nope. I got a daily link to a bunch of articles. But click to read one and you get the pay wall. Gee thanks for your handy email. Not.
