(D) Moving into the first rank of American newspapers only after Katharine Graham became its publisher in 1963, The Washington Post, winning high praise under her command

(E) Moving into the first rank of American newspapers only after Katharine Graham's becoming its publisher in 1963, The Washington Post won high praise under her command

答案是A
我的问题如下：

根据语法规则：若前句用的是所有格形式，后句的代词若想指代前句的所有者，是绝对错的。

that it moved into的it指的是The Washington Post，而The Washington Post不就是所有格里面的所有者吗？

谢谢。
