Paid Content

So what is this whispering going on, or should I say yelling, about paying people to post blogs on topics they enjoy talking about?

Well it's a conversation about taking away how traditional blogging was started, which basically allows someone t0 write about something they like, for example their favorite dish or their major issue on a political topic and get paid for it. So the questions that have raised in my mind are, because someone now gets paid to post their comments, does it make the content less valuable or objective? Or will people begin to write non important topics because they are now getting paid and it doesn't come as second nature?

I believe that it depends on the topic you are writing about. Meaning if it's music, someone can still write an objective opinion about it, because music is apart of almost everyone's life and each person has their own personal view. Where as on the other hand if someone is getting paid to write about a biochemical nuclear chip that is being studied, but has no interest or knowledge on that topic, you can guess, that the blog won't be that compelling or objective. I think paid content, is definitely a direction that we are moving into, we just have to see how it plays out, and if it grows to a new level, as some are already doing it.
