Major Hogwash
(17,656 posts)12. The Statesman is wholly owned by Gannett Company.
Which was taken over a few years ago by a rightwing media group.
For example of how rightwing they are, they replaced Molly Ivins' column with one written by Charles Krauthammer.
This newspaper doesn't have as much influence as it did 10 years ago as a result.
