i get what you're trying to say here, the parent company deserves blame, but ultimately those parent companies are only worth what their brands are worth. The reason they have generic and forgettable names like "Advance Publications" is so they can absorb the stink of corruption without it tainting their consumer-facing brands. Putting the blame on a recognizable and valuable brand instead of a faceless parent company is the better way to get accountability. If you really want to spread the blame around, you can mention that it's the owner of Reddit and the parent company of Ars Technica, Wired and The New Yorker as well as Teen Vogue.
