Received this information from a source:

- Pokernews is now owned by Amaya, who purchased it around June 2015.

- The purchase was never made public, and they aren't intending to make it public yet.

- The staff at Pokernews did not change as a result of the purchase.

- Amaya has instructed Pokernews to operate as normal, and has not exercised any kind of editorial control over the content on the site.

- Pokernews' successful, long-running affiliate business will remain untouched. Therefore, Pokernews is still promoting other sites competing with Pokerstars.


This has not been confirmed, but the source who provided the information to me seemed pretty sure about it.
