Independent hypocrisy?

The Independent has today run a story smearing some MPs with allegations of propping up the Zimbabwe regime because they hold some shares in BP, Tesco and a few other FTSE 100 companies. These global companies have some dealings in Zimbabwe.

Interestingly enough Independent News & Media Plc (the owners of the Independent) acquire a 50% stake in Clear Channel Independent an African advertising firm which does business in ...... Zimbabwe.

Hypocrisy?

EDIT at 11am
Guido has the story here as well and the Indy owns 100% not 50%
