New memo from Macmillan CEO John Sargent

You are very uninformed. Tor.com has always been transparently Tor Books' web presence, which in turn has made no bones about being under the Macmillan umbrella. While you're at it, how about a news flash outing Minnesota as a state in the union?
You didn't understand the point. The point isn't whether Tor.com is marked as Macmillan property. Clearly, it is. The point is whether Tor.com can claim to be publisher agnostic. Given the special treatment of John Sargent's memos and the fact that they are closed to comment means that Tor.com is NOT publisher agnostic.
