Media Consolidation
Media Consolidation: Big media companies owning
multiple media outlets and ultimately controlling the perspectives and

concentrated, there are fewer opportunities for expressing independent
or minority viewpoints through the media and gathering information from
a wide range of sources with differing viewpoints is difficult.
