Andrew Sullivan's Dish is Parting Ways With the DailyBeast

Sullivan's leap of faith is based on his loyal following of a million readers and the prospect that they will pay to access THEIR content. The Dish , will be available at andrewsullivan.com on February  1st. According to Sullivan, "There is no paywall. Just a freemium-based meter. We’ve tried to maximize what’s freely available, while monetizing those parts of the Dish where true Dishheads reside." "You’ll have a limited number of free read-ons a month, before we hit you up for $19.99." This combination  approach ties in the New York Times metered paywall and the Wall Street Journals  premium content model, which will ultimately lead you to a paywall.
