Think you have limitless media options with competitive pricing?

Read this report from FAIR  https://fair.org/   to understand how that "just isn't so":

AT&T was the dominate telephone provider for most of the 20th century. Because the company was so large, in 1984 the government forced it to break up into eight smaller companies. Today, almost all of those companies are once again part of AT&T, along with cellular carriers and cable providers. In fact, it is reported that today AT&T is more than twice the size it was before the break-up.

But while it may seem like you have limitless options, most of the media you consume is owned by one of six companies. These six media companies are known as The Big 6.

While independent media outlets still exist (and there are a lot of them), the major outlets are almost all owned by these six conglomerates. To be clear, “media” in this context does not refer just to news outlets — it refers to any medium that controls the distribution of information. So here, “media” includes 24-hour news stations, newspapers, publishing houses, Internet utilities, and even video game developers.
