In their conference call, the Times management said they were "exploring alternative, online business models" to keep the ship afloat. This probably means more underpaid online scribes: the Wall Street Journal says that there are now more bloggers than computer programmers, and only two percent of them make a living at it (a number we find inflated, given what AdSense and Blogads pay -- and that the finding was based on a survey of bloggers, who are notorious for overstating their earnings).
