In July 1925 the Telegraph Agency of the Soviet Union ("Telegrafnoye agentstvo Sovetskogo Soyuza", TASS) was established by a decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet, and took over the duties of the ROSTA as the country's central information agency. TASS enjoyed "exclusive right to gather and distribute information outside the Soviet Union, as well as the right to distribute foreign and domestic information within the Soviet Union, and manage the news agencies of the Soviet republics". Official state information was delivered as the "TASS Report"
Aneta (news agency) Aneta (news agency) Aneta (, "General News and Telegraph Agency") was a Dutch news agency founded 1 April 1917 by Dominique Willem Berretty. It was the first news agency in the Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia), and a predecessor of the Antara news agency. In 1920, Aneta moved to a new building located on what is now Jalan Antara. The facade of the building was remodeled into a more striking building with a clock tower in 1930. The building still stands but is in poor condition. By 1941 Aneta had become the semi-official news agency of the East Indies government.
