WGBH to Buy Global Post

Online international news site Global Post announces it is being acquired by WGBH, the Boston public broadcast station. It will be folded into their Public Radio International unit. WGBH is a major content provider for PBS and NPR stations nationwide.

Ideologically, this M&A makes sense; both organizations are over-the-moon liberal. In spite of which bias, every now and then Global Post does something useful.
