The problem is you are referencing articles about her husband and not her.  Unlike her husband, Alice is not a billionaire.  We don't know what kind of relationship they have and it's their personal business, not ours, but I do know that they do not share money to purchase businesses.  Alice is not the sole owner of ADN at least not financially and she didn't get her money from her husband to purchase ADN.  She is making a decision that makes sense for a business.  ADN has bills to pay.  Alice is not the sole owner.  Her husband is not involved financially.  So you are wrong to assume that her husband will take financial responsibility.  But, again, it is not our business.

I am not disagreeing with the free speech aspect of your message.  I believe everyone should be informed and that shouldn't be a privilege because one can pay.  I am sad to see that ADN will be charging fees.  I will not subscribe, but instead use another news source.  Any suggestions?
