    NYT web traffic down since pay model started

    Note the last paragraph: And it could be a lot worse: Had the Times opted for an unconditional pay model, as News Corp's Times of London did, the paper would have been looking at a much steeper decline. The U.K. Times was said to have lost 90 percent of its web traffic in the months after...
