The Site: http://whopayswriters.com
This was pretty neat. It's a collection of anonymously reported rates being paid about by the biggest publishers in print and online, how fast they pay, whether the editors seek you out, the contracts, etc.
For you aspiring journalists and copywriters, this can tell you what the current rates are like in your industry and at certain tiers of influence. Also it provides a list of sites to reach out to and try to start a relationship.
The entire list is down the left sidebar. Very interesting stuff in there.

For instance, New York Times Magazine paid someone $2.00 per word for a Front-Of-Book assignment of 500 words.
Buzzfeed paid someone $0.50 per word for a 6000 word feature that required heavy investigation, acquired through a cold pitch (Buzzfeed hit them up for it I think).
