11/29 Eng 107 : "Neither Snow, Nor Rain, Nor Heat, Nor Gloom of Night...

Navasky believes that big media is replacing "Big Brother" as the biggest danger to limit open public dialogue that makes democracy. He believes that there are 50 or so companies that control all parts of the media ( Music, Movies, Entertainment etc. etc.) He also thinks that with due time that the number of companies will go from around 50 down to about six.

Navasky thinks that because of the corporate ownership of most of the media it will end up keeping us from speaking our minds and expressing ourselves. This just goes to show that a lot of the things we see on T.V. now are not always real and somethings are strung out just so that it can get more viewers and give the channel and owning company higher ratings.
