    "Whoever controls the media controls the mind." © Jim Morrison, The Doors |#music

    The media occupy a prominent place in public life, they not only reflect the processes occurring in the world, but also influence the formation of a worldview, take on the dissemination and creation of appropriate
    ... norms of behavior, social values ​​and goals.

    Today, the United States of America occupies a leading place in the information field, and the picture of the American media is very revealing. The American press, both print and electronic, is primarily a business and has a purely commercial character (which is actually typical of the absolute majority of capitalist countries). There are no state-owned media in the country, except for those broadcasting only to foreign countries, such as the Voice of America and Radio Marty radio stations. All other press organs operate on a commercial basis, their main purpose is to make a profit. If magazines, newspapers or TV stations stop generating revenue, they are usually closed or sold.

    So, what about media control in an advanced capitalist country where the terms “free speech” and “free market” are so common?

    Back in 1983, about 50 corporations controlled the vast majority (90%) of all media in the United States. Today, 90% of the media are owned by just 5 incredibly powerful media corporations.

    These five conglomerates are: AT&T Inc. (the world's largest telecommunications company, in 2018 acquired Time Warner conglomerate for $ 85 billion, which owns Time Inc., Warner Bros. Entertainment, Time Warner Cable, CNN, HBO, Turner Broadcasting System and The CW Television Network), The Walt Disney Company, Fox Corporation, Viacom (the merger with the CBS television and radio network officially completed in 2019) and Comcast Corporation (the largest cable TV and broadband Internet operator in the United States, as well as the largest pay TV operator in the world with 52 million subscribers, spends millions annually dollars to lobby their interests, and also has the practice of hiring family members of officials in the corporation).

    In addition, several billionaires control vast areas of the media. One example is Mortimer Zuckerman, who owns US News & World Report, or Warren Buffett, who owns the majority of voting shares in Berkshire Hathaway, which owns 70 daily newspapers in the United States.

    The aforementioned conglomerates own television networks, cable channels, film studios, newspapers, magazines, publishing houses, music labels, and even many of the popular websites. These conglomerates are largely responsible for instilling social, political, economic, and moral values ​​in both adults and children in the United States.

    But it was not always so. So, if in 1880 61% of all urban daily newspapers in the United States had competitors in their city, then in 1930 - 21%, in 1940 - 13%, in the mid-1970s. - only 3%. By the end of the last century, 11 news distribution sources completely dominated the United States: three television networks (ABC, CBS, NBC), three popular magazines (Time, Newsweek, US News & World Report), three newspapers (The New York Times, The Washington Post , The Wall Street Journal), two news agencies (Associated Press and United Press International).

    And this trend is not limited to the United States. In Britain, for example, in 2017, the 10 largest companies received 70% of the revenue from the entire media industry, and the 40 largest - as much as 92% [1].

    In Australia, the situation will be arranged in a similar way. According to a study by IBISWorld [2], which was conducted in June 2016:

    “The four largest players in the industry, News Australia, Fairfax Media, Seven West Media and APN News and Media, are estimated to have generated over 90% of the industry's revenues in 2015-2016. The Australian media landscape is one of the most concentrated in the world. An extremely small number of firms, notably News Australia and Fairfax Media, publish content that the vast majority of Australians receive. ”

    Love #Australian Open, but in the 21st year everything looks like a fever delirium. It is possible and necessary to understand the Australian authorities, but the desire to somehow recoup the money already spent and earn tournament organizers is not.
