  • 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.

  • The Crisis of Contemporary Arab Television
    UC Santa Barbara Global Societies Journal Title The Crisis of Contemporary Arab Television: Has the Move towards Transnationalism and Privatization in Arab Television Affected Democratization and Social Development in the Arab World? Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/13s698mx Journal Global Societies Journal, 1(1) Author Elouardaoui, Ouidyane Publication Date 2013 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California The Crisis of Contemporary Arab Television | 100 The Crisis of Contemporary Arab Television: Has the Move towards Transnationalism and Privatization in Arab Television Affected Democratization and Social Development in the Arab World? By: Ouidyane Elouardaoui ABSTRACT Arab media has experienced a radical shift starting in the 1990s with the emergence of a wide range of private satellite TV channels. These new TV channels, such as MBC (Middle East Broadcasting Center) and Aljazeera have rapidly become the leading Arab channels in the realms of entertainment and news broadcasting. These transnational channels are believed by many scholars to have challenged the traditional approach of their government–owned counterparts. Alternatively, other scholars argue that despite the easy flow of capital and images in present Arab television, having access to trustworthy information still poses a challenge due to the governments’ grip on the production and distribution of visual media. This paper brings together these contrasting perspectives, arguing that despite the unifying role of satellite Arab TV channels, in which national challenges are cast as common regional worries, democratization and social development have suffered. One primary factor is the presence of relationships forged between television broadcasters with influential government figures nationally and regionally within the Arab world.

  • How Cable News Reshaped Local Government$
    How Cable News Reshaped Local GovernmentI Sergio Gallettay, Elliott Ashy yETH Zürich Abstract Partisan cable news broadcasts have a causal effect on the size and composition of bud- gets in U.S. localities. Utilizing channel positioning as an instrument for viewership, we show that exposure to the conservative Fox News Channel shrinks local government budgets, while liberal MSNBC enlarges them. Revenue changes are driven by shifts in property taxes, a key tool for local redistributive policy. Expenditure changes are driven by public hospital expenditures, an important discretionary public good provided by lo- cal governments. We also find evidence that Fox exposure increased privatization (while MSNBC decreased it). An analysis of mechanisms suggests that the results are driven by changes in voter preferences, but not by changes in partisan control of city governments. IWe are grateful to Stefano DellaVigna, Mirko Draca, Ruben Durante, Tore Ellingsen, Benny Geys, Massimo Morelli, Suresh Naidu, Giovanni Pica, Carlo Schwarz, Alex Stremitzer, and Alois Stutzer for helpful suggestions. We have also benefited from comments by participants at the "Causes and Consequences of Populism workshop" in Bocconi (Milan), "Workshop on Political Economy" at the IEB (Barcelona), "Swiss Workshop on Local Public Finance" (Lugano), "Petralia workshop" (Petralia), EEA-ESEM conference (Manchester) and seminars at the University of Lugano, ETH Zürich and IAE- CSIC (Barcelona). We are grateful to Christian Dippel for sharing his data on city elections and to Greg Martin for sharing data on Nielsen ratings.

    Sports Business Journal: Going gray: Sports TV viewers skew older Study: Nearly all sports see quick rise in average age of TV viewers as younger fans shift to digital platforms By John Lombardo & David Broughton, Staff Writers | Published June 5, 2017, Page 1 According to a striking study of Nielsen television viewership data of 25 sports, all but one have seen the median age of their TV viewers increase during the past decade. How top properties stack up Avg. age of Change TV viewers since Property in 2016 2006 PGA Tour 64 +5 ATP 61 +5 NASCAR 58 +9 MLB 57 +4 WTA 55 -8 NFL 50 +4 NHL 49 +7 NBA 42 +2 MLS 40 +1 Source: Magna Global The study, conducted exclusively for Sports Business Journal by Magna Global, looked at live, regular-season game coverage of major sports across both broadcast and cable television in 2000, 2006 and 2016. It showed that while the median age of viewers of most sports, except the WTA, NBA and MLS, is aging faster than the overall U.S. population, it is doing so at a slower pace than prime-time TV. The trends show the challenges facing leagues as they try to attract a younger audience and ensure long-term viability, and they reflect the changes in consumption patterns as young people shift their attention to digital platforms. “There is an increased interest in short-term things, like stats and quick highlights,” said Brian Hughes, senior vice president of audience intelligence and strategy at Magna Global. “That availability of information has naturally funneled some younger viewers away from TV.” Jeramie McPeek, former longtime digital media executive for the Phoenix Suns who now runs Jeramie McPeek Communications, a social media consultancy, also cited the movement of younger consumers to digital platforms.
