Reading the replies by philshem and others, I think it has to have been the paywall change.

Thanks, and appreciated.

Paywalls certainly seem associated with a few declines (NYT, WaPo), but not others. E.g., NPR and CBC.ca both fell off a cliff in 2022, PBS fell after 2008. None impose paywalls.

Might be a pattern there, could just be noise.
