Front-Page Ads in the WSJ?

12:02 PM, May 3, 2006

The Wall Street Journal, working on a Mario Garcia-led “reimagining” (and web-width reduction), is considering putting ads on its front page, The New York Observer reports today (scroll down).

Some news staffers aren’t thrilled:

“We understand this is a for-profit business,” one newsroom staffer said. “But an ad on the front page? That would really piss people off.”

It is worth noting, however, that the international editions of the WSJ already have front-page advertising.

Heads up: After you hit "post" things may be slow and you may get an error. Most likely, your comment did post. Apologies. I'm looking for a fix.

Is a real bad message for the readers.
