Media Control Video

Media control comes into question often, particularly during any election.

This video is a fairly standard review of media control in the US. In fact, it actually left me wanting a little more content and research showing who owns what.

Which opens up the question to you: do you have suggestions for research related to media control in Canada?  I’m interested in the number of companies, the number of subsidiaries and the ultimate ‘politicization’ of the media in Canada.  In the past election, a number of publishers said that they either supported the Liberals or the Conservatives with little to no justification for that position.  Objectivity disappeared overnight and it was a massive disappointment, as far as I was concerned.
