Or at the very least, free access to major online newspapers. USA Today, WSJ and NYT immediately come to mind, as these are the major national papers Marriott has been providing in paper format.

I'm thinking it would be relatively easy to whitelist certain online news sites and allow those "free" in MHRS rooms, until such time as Marriott is ready to join the 21st century and offer the entire web for free.
