Question: In 1983, fifty companies owned 90 percent of all U.S. media outlets. By 2012, just six conglomerates (Comcast, Disney, Fox, Time Warner, Viacom, and CBS) controlled the same percentage of U.S. media outlets; see figure 8.3 on page 291 in the textbook. What does the concentrated ownership mean for democracy? Support your response with specific examples or evidence.
