I never complained about said fee personally yet think of the bn as a not so great source, so I wouldn't subscribe to begin with.
if you want to pay, read and praise bn that's your prerogative. meanwhile why the need to call some out as angry or resentful saying they need to get a grip was my initial complaint about your post but maybe you felt the need to do so.
no one should be expecting anything to be free and I agree that they have to pay employees some chump change for their work, no problem there. I just think if you're going to share anything from a pay source, make it clear in the thread title "bn article, must subscribe and pay a fee to read" and that may save from the backlash in the future?
