The problem with that theory is that 99% of news are not by the company running the news website either. Not to mention that they wouldn't get any traffic if nobody was allowed to link to them.
That certainly does sound like a problem for Facebook, and that’s why they told Canada to fuck off and stopped publishing Canadian news.
That doesn’t make it right, and it’s certainly pretty shitty on that part of Facebook, who could easily afford to pay for the content that they make so much money from.
