CNBC Looks to Put More Online Content Behind Paywall (CMCSA)

CNBC is looking to offer more premium content on its online website and charge a subscription price for access.

According to a blog post on CNBC.com Monday, managing editor Allen Wastler said the move was to enhance the company's CNBC Pro offering. Wastler noted, Now, along with some pretty nifty streaming and data services in that product, there will be some investment features and portfolio features tied to two of our premiere programs: Fast Money Half Time and Squawk Box.

Wastler also said news and market coverage will still be freely available, with only 2 percent moving to the pay service.
