Media outlets such as the London Free Press shouldn't embrace these kinds of changes. They should persist with the old name in protest.

Ditto. I graduated from the same university. I still think that the name 'Western University' could belong to any university anywhere in the world. But University of Western Ontario is a name with an indisputable provenance, and is far more immediately recognizable.
The London Free Press isn't much of a newspaper. It goes any way the wind blows, especially if certain factions want it to go in a given direction.
