You also have to look at Archived Message Posted by ken on December 20, 2020, 1:27 pm, in reply to "Who owns the media? Top newspaper, website and magazine owners charted By Ben Van Der Merwe" The control of the UK distributers with a nice cozy deal between Smiths and Menzies slitting the country between them. For example they tried to put the Morning Star out of business by refusing to distribute. They seem to be still at it today but on a small scale chipping away. I get the Morning Star and no sign of it for the last two weekends and guess who is to blame, going by past experiences of this if not challenged it then extends to missing papers in the week, The newsagent and others I have used have all said Smiths and Menzies are a terrible company but have to deal with them, one even went to their distribution site in the midlands and in not so many words was told to "#### off".
