- 15. “How do you try to limit your losses when people expect their “content” - their words, their arguments, their virtual encounters with the great, the good and the reasonably talented – to be as free as the air they breathe? ! The answer, it seems, is you don’t. So what you do is cut your costs. You might, for example, want to get rid of all your expensive staff writers. You might decide that “content” is something you can get from a college leaver, for 18, or 19, or 20 grand. You might even decide that the important thing isn’t to get the right words in the right order, but just to get some words – any words – down. Christina Patterson (now) Freelance Journalist
