- tclancy 9y agoFor most papers, I'd say it's safe to assume the editorial staff do not make financial decisions.
- vixen99 9y agoWhat they (the finance department) do (minimization of their tax bill) is legal and sensible and necessary for the paper's survival. If it were not and this was known to the staff, it would be no excuse morally or legally to say that the staff 'don't make these decisions'.

- tome 9y agoAre the editorial staff allowed to report on the financial decisions of their owners?
- sgift 9y agoYes. If you follow the chain of articles back to its end you will find: https://www.theguardian.com/media/2008/may/03/1 https://www.theguardian.com/media/2008/may/03/1 A report by the Guardian on the very same topic.
- jimnotgym 9y ago1) The Guardian doesn't have an 'owner'as such, it is owned by a trust. 2) It did make this deal offshore but it didn't save then tax. Good links above on this
