WSJ, like pretty much all media, earns money from both ads and subscriptions. They have ads in the middle of Apple News+ too. And I assume they get paid somehow for “submarine” or PR articles.

Submarines aren’t paid for directly, particularly not at reputable publications. They take advantage of journalists’ desire for convenience, not revenue.
