They are privately owned, sort of. I think a couple of them are city owned, but none are corporately owned.

Well...
Some teams are owned by companies - I know Steinbrenner purchased the Yankees from CBS.
If I am not mistaken, Ted Turner owns the Braves and he owns Turner Broadcasting which is a subsidiary of Time Warner (NYSE: TWX)
Other then that, I do not know of any public companies who own franchises.

I think that the league is jointly owned by the owners of the teams.
