The Business of News: Dancing With Whom Exactly?

I think we have a problem here with this deal.

I'm annoyed that I missed or forgot to notice the implications of it for the better part of a year. Because Thomson Reuters owns the Globe and Mail as well, I think I'm going to have to stop buying that newspaper, regardless of what I think of the people working there. Am I wrong to believe that a realistic prospect?

I think the concern here is that TASS - in an effort to further Putinist influence operations abroad - might find ways of "steering" Reuters editorial policy despite being nominally a distribution customer of Reuters.
