Niche print zines and magazines seem to be surviving. Not sure about newspapers. They literally could not give Evening Standard away for free (it was paid for by advertising).

The FT has over a million paying subscribers.

How many people get it through work (like me) and how many actually pay for a subscription, though?

I'm not sure that makes much of a difference. So long as they are able to make decent journalism?

The Financial Times seems to be doing well. But it’s a premium product for an audience with money.
I think they are probably a good model for future newspapers, whereas the evening standard seems to be a general newspaper without much to distinguish it from the competition.
