Responding to COVID-19

News cuts paywall to free up virus reporting

In a bid to keep Australians better informed during the COVID-19 crisis, News Corp will lift the paywalls on its metro mastheads, including The Daily Telegraph, Herald Sun and The Courier-Mail, to new customers signing up in the next two weeks. They will be given free access for 28 days and 50 per cent off for the following month.
