Operating costs.
If you're trying to run an honest-to-goodness news outlet, you need to be able to afford reporters, editors, printers, web hosting, etc.
If you're just running a propaganda rag in an attempt to astroturf political issues, then it doesn't need to make its operating costs back. You're paying to ensure politicians friendly to your other businesses are in power.
