The U.S. media landscape is dominated by massive corporations that, through a history of mergers and acquisitions, have concentrated their control over what we see, hear and read. In many cases these giant companies are vertically intergrated, controlling everything from initial production to final distribution.

I agree, one company owns all 5 radio stations in this town and it lends nothing to diversity, of course I have the choice to listen to a radio station from a nearby city but it lacks local news. I think there should be limits as to who owns media in small areas such as ours. .

The "media" has, for years, been slanted toward the left, especially "pubic TV and "public radio." The FOX TV News network is popular because people want to hear the other side of issues, instead of the same old liberal line.

The Unions drive the media, The Democrats depend on Unions. That why the liberal slant. Hollywood and television are hardcore Democrat Union.
