Yikes! Is Crux Partnering with the Knights of Columbus Good News or Bad News?

Are these Knights running toward the battle
 or just running?
Crux hasn't exactly been a paragon of Catholic orthodoxy since it premiered eighteen months ago under Boston Globe sponsorship. So, needless to say, I was a little taken aback to see the Knights of Columbus were going to partner with the media site and keep it in business. According to the Boston Business Journal:
The Catholic Pulse [the K of C's news site] article announcing the partnership said that “[t]he Knights will respect the editorial freedom of Crux, trusting it to present news and commentary in a way that serves the good of the Church.” Allen said he is hopeful the switch from a secular publisher to a Catholic organization will not threaten the site’s editorial independence. “That is very much part of our deal,” he said. “As with anything else, we’re going to have to see how it works out.”
