Covering Louisiana politics since 1972, John Maginnis has made a living for the last 21 years running a statewide political newsletter and website that people actually pay to read. The site, LaPolitics, is devoted exclusively to, well, Louisiana politics. Some of the content is free, but a lot of it is also behind a paywall. Maginnis and his partner, Jeremy Alford, ask people to pay $145 per year to get access to all of their material.
