Running notes: "How to Make Money with News" at Shorenstein Center

I took running notes of the discussion yesterday at the Harvard-Shorenstein event, "How to Make Money with News." You can read them

Also, there's a Twitter stream here:

You'll find some of the tweeters saying not solutions came out of the six-hour gathering. But it wasn't set up to elicit any. There was quite a bit of back-and-forth on whether the news industry could figure out a way to charge for content -- this certainly continues to be a to-of-mind issue. And also lots of snide remarks about Huffington Post's linking-without-paying.
