Canadian publisher Thomson Corp. has agreed to buy Reuters for about $17.2 billion.
The Reuters Founders Share Company agreed to the deal. Now the only thing that stands between the finalization of the deal is regulatory clearance and shareholder approval.
The new Thomson-Reuters company will have revenues of about $12 billion and almost 49,000 employees.
