It all depends on the policy of the paper. Some papers have decided to put up a "paywall" to allow access. Major papers which have done this are the Times, Sunday Times, Financial Times, Wall Street Journal and NYT. All bar NYT are owned by Rupert Murdoch and the News Corporation, of Fox News fame. They are of the opinion that they can make more money through a "paywall" in spite of the inevitable drop in advertising numbers. Most other major papers, the only ones who could ever justify a paywall, are still free.
Personally I'd rather read the local advertising flyer than give Murdoch any money, but your mileage may vary! ;-)
