The Myth of the Liberal Media

We watched The Myth of the Liberal Media and discussed a variety of issues including media ownership and media conglomeration and how that affects the news we receive.

Visit Free Press and look at the media ownership chart.  Consider a television channel you watch or a particular television show or maybe a musical artist you particularly enjoy and trace it to its corporate owner.  Which conglomerate owns and controls the channel/show/artist?  How might that influence the content of the programming or the content of the episodes or the lyrics?
