Is the below analysis correct?

But Rothermere and Beaverbrook were not principally interested in the issue for its own sake = But Rothermere and Beaverbrook were basically involved in the issue for some advantage/benefit.

Interested in is not the same as involved in.

Some other advantage/benefit.
