Comparatively, from when in the '70s through the '90s the National Media Conglomerates were battling each other for rattings. So what they did to capture the ratings was expose Government and Corporate Collusion and make up extended stories for the citizens to get to know the plight of their system(s).
That couldnt continue if the billionaires that were trying to take this place over and enslave us and the world, if the news was telling us of their crimes, and the focus of them. So in short of Three Decades, the Media in the United States shrunk from 26 National Media Groups, to 6. National Expose' regarding News of Government and Corporate Collusion dropped out of the Media sharply in 2001. Since then, the major National Media groups have primarily kept the really important, country shaping topics, out of the public ear.
It's the other way around - we have access to much more information today compared to the boomer era. Media back then was consolidated and centralized and there was almost no alternative outlets. They only played the fake dialectic which fooled people there's free speech and criticism of the system and that corrupt entities including the government won't get away with egregious shit because there's free investigative journalism that would expose them (as if those journalists weren't on a payroll and weren't CIA Mockingbird implants).
Media control is one of the pillars of any regime, especially fabian socialists who got the reigns before and after the war and turned this country (and the rest of the world for that matter) to shit.
Nowhere is the essence of media at the time better presented than in this scene from Network: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35DSdw7dHjs
Do you even read?
Everything I wrote can be easily looked up in US Media market statistics.
Your presupposition that there was a time when the media wasn't owned by a small elite group of people is wrong. Just because the consolidation wasn't official doesn't mean they didn't have a hold on the media. My point still stands - we have access to much more information about what's going on than in previous times.
Your point stands, but it's WRONG, in regards to the number of media conglomerates and the multitude of owners going back to the late 70's. And, if you don't want to look into it to know it, IDGAF.
