If you live elsewhere, we will extend future offers only if you're eligible.

Examiners are local insiders with specialized expertise about a particular subject who want to share it with their neighbours.

I thought it may be a good idea to examine the examiner, they have bought a news community where people did not wish to be paid for their publications or news gatherings for debate. 

   

They are now trying to tempt the members of a well established news community to be paid for their publications as part of a network of cheap labor free lance journalist. The incentive of US$50 dollars being a tasty looking morsel. 

   

Its been my understanding that most members that use this news community do so out of pleasure and that making money is not what temps us here. We mostly get on well with each other though our opinions and views some time differ.

   

My question today will not only be interesting to readers, members but also to the administration of the examiner.

   

Do you think that the owner and the administration of the examiner judged the membership here incorrectly and thought many of the writers the very best talent (please don't include me when assessing) could be tempted by money and more readership?

   My opinion is yes!

This has been moved from the site and that is why the formatting is looking a little strange.

Sorry about that!

Oh, am also re-posting my comment from the story as it disappears otherwise:

We have been asked to move all non-news stories over to the forum where the discussion is free to take place.

I have done that here, and am closing the comment thread here and will be un-publishing this story shortly.

This is not to stifle any discussion, but we have been asked to not allow stories about the site and site issues in the news section as per our instructions here.

[...] go to original post

Thank armyjudd

It is in fact world news, so I have published elsewhere, here in the forum it will be hidden and not many members will see it. However I total understand the politics.
