The prince of papers

Article Abstract:

Black's empire now includes 58 daily papers, which amounts to 43% of Canadian newspaper circulation. He also has plans to increase his stake in Southam to over 50%, which would give him even more editorial control. Some worry that Black has become too powerful and Hollinger will dominate news.
