  • Media Ownership Chart
    In 1983, 50 corporations controlled the vast majority of all news media in the U.S. At the time, Ben Bagdikian was called "alarmist" for pointing this out in his book, The Media Monopoly . In his 4th edition, published in 1992, he wrote "in the U.S., fewer than two dozen of these extraordinary creatures own and operate 90% of the mass media" -- controlling almost all of America's newspapers, magazines, TV and radio stations, books, records, movies, videos, wire services and photo agencies. He predicted then that eventually this number would fall to about half a dozen companies. This was greeted with skepticism at the time. When the 6th edition of The Media Monopoly was published in 2000, the number had fallen to six. Since then, there have been more mergers and the scope has expanded to include new media like the Internet market. More than 1 in 4 Internet users in the U.S. now log in with AOL Time-Warner, the world's largest media corporation. In 2004, Bagdikian's revised and expanded book, The New Media Monopoly , shows that only 5 huge corporations -- Time Warner, Disney, Murdoch's News Corporation, Bertelsmann of Germany, and Viacom (formerly CBS) -- now control most of the media industry in the U.S. General Electric's NBC is a close sixth.

  • Filing Under Rule 425 Under the Securities Act of 1933, As Amended Subject Company: Viacom Inc
    Filing under Rule 425 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended Subject Company: Viacom Inc. Subject Company's Commission File No.: 001-09553 TO: All Viacom Employees FROM: Sumner Redstone DATE: June 14, 2005 We have some very exciting and important news to share with you. Today, the Viacom Board of Directors approved the creation of two separate publicly traded companies from Viacom's businesses through a spin-off to Viacom shareholders. Even for a company with a history of industry-leading milestones and significant successes, this is a landmark announcement. This decision was the result of careful and thorough deliberation by the Viacom Board of Directors, who, working with me and with the Viacom management team, considered a number of strategic options that we felt could maximize the future growth of our businesses and unlock the value of our assets. Viacom's businesses are vibrant and we believe that the creation of two separate companies will not only enhance our strength, but also improve our strategic, operational and financial flexibility. In many ways, today's decision is a natural extension of the path we laid out in creating Viacom. We are retaining the significant advantages we captured in the Paramount and CBS mergers and, at the same time, recognizing the need to adapt to a changing competitive environment. We are proud of what we have created here at Viacom, and want to ensure we can efficiently capitalize on our skills and our innovative ideas, as well as all the business opportunities that arise -- while recognizing the significant untapped business and investment potential of our brands.
