MICKEY KAUS: “Is the infamous NYT TimesSelect paywall about to disappear? kf hears rumblings that the paper is about to abandon the whole misconceived project in which it has blocked unpaid Web access to its op-ed columnists.”

It was a bad idea, but I find I don’t miss them all that much. I get Times Select for free, but I basically never read Dowd or Krugman anymore.
