Why does DN print articles contridicting the BoM? Ex. horses

This article:

http://www.deseretnews.com/article/700141784/Are-wild-horses-native-to-US-BLM-view-challenged.html

is interesting because it openly states the history of the horse and the extinction occurring 7,600 years ago, and the re-introduction in the 15th and 16th centuries by the Europeans. Why does the DN print articles like this? The very first comment reflects my confusion. Maybe they're sticking with their 'tapir' horse story, and embracing science where horses are concerned.

That's pretty funny. It is a big issue for Mormon ranchers

and I guess that makes the science of it more relevant than the BoM mythology.

There's money involved.
