In the early days of newspapers, they used to get the money they needed to collect and check news from a combination of subscriptions and advertising. After the consolidation of media ownership that started with the deregulation of the 1980s, they mostly depended on ad revenue.

That revenue is gone and it's not coming back. What's left of it is monopolised by the DataFarms. But I suspect most marketing money now goes on commercial websites, as well as SEO grifters and other parasites.
