THE BIG TEN. Ever see this chart of who owns the "liberal" media?

[cyberpj]

If you click on one of the Big Ten, it will show you all the media each one owns.

And that was current as of Dec., 2001 - Things are probably even worse by now.

6. Wow. I got lost looking around those sites. So GE took out 2 of the 10??

AND they'll control Telemundo?

This is really bad bad news.

2002 - Telemundo Communications Group is acquired for $2.7 billion in a deal with an investment group that includes Sony and Liberty Media.
