BBC News: The Sun will scrap the paywall on its website just over two years after it was introduced. Rebekah Brooks, chief executive of Sun owner News UK, told staff in an email it would make its online stories “largely free” by the end of November. She said the plan would add readers. The Sun first started charging customers £2 a week in August 2013. Other newspapers charging for access include News UK’s Times newspapers and the Financial Times.
