Twitter CEO Elon Musk announced that Twitter will be introducing a new option specifically geared towards media outlets' accounts allowing them to charge users for content on a per-article basis. 

"Rolling out next month, this platform will allow media publishers to charge users on a per-article basis with one click. This enables users who would not sign up for a monthly subscription to pay a higher per article price for when they want to read an occasional article," Musk tweeted.

Last week, Twitter's high-profile users protested the social media company's forced reinstatement of their blue checkmarks for free in recent days, just after the firm removed its legacy mark - a symbol implying that the account's user is verified - on April 14 as part of Elon Musk's plan to generate more revenue to the struggling platform.

Media accounts, celebrities, and accounts with a high following were surprised to see that they were granted a "Twitter Blue" checkmark despite not paying the 8$ subscription fee.

Out of 407,000 legacy profiles, less than 5 percent subscribed after the decision went into effect, said Travis Brown, a software developer in Berlin who monitors social media platforms.
