Scrolling further down the page, the reader sees a new section that not only contains direct links to major stories from the current print edition of the paper, but also links directly to a new page on the site that contains links to every piece of that week’s print edition.
In addition, each story on the site includes a tool that allows a reader to purchase a link to that story that can be shared with anyone, giving them access to the story regardless of their subscriber status. Packages are available to purchase multiple links in the course of a year. Subscribers can read all stories on PBN.com at any time.
Mark S. Murphy is PBN’s editor.
