Doesn’t mean it doesn’t have a right wing bias and agenda, though. I haven’t read thd Star in decades, so I don’t know. Just pointing out the (probably) painfully obvious (because I have a tendency to do that).
From what I remember they were losing a lot of money, so they’ve mostly switched to opinion pieces that are more likely to go viral and drive subscriptions
Most recent ownership info I can find is that the Star is owned by Torstar Corporation, which is owned by NordStar Capital.
Canadian company, and not Postmedia. Is this not still true?
Postmedia has a bunch of “* Star” papers and the Toronto Sun but notably not the Toronto Star.
The star went private a few years ago, the new owners broke up and then the sole owner fired the head editor.
I think it’s still Canadian.

No idea of that changed the bias
I replied to the wrong person, my apologies.
I was pretty sure it was the Toronto Star that was Postmedia… I may be remembering incorrectly. I’m gonna delete my comment until I can verify.
