Cable networks and news

The media landscape: Who owns what?

Giant corporations own more and more of our news media. Focused only on the bottom line, they’re cutting journalists and gutting newsrooms nationwide.

And because the FCC slashed its media-ownership limits in 2017, corporations will now be able to own the daily newspaper and multiple TV and radio stations in the same market — which will give us fewer voices and viewpoints, and far less local-news coverage. It also means that the low rates of media ownership among women and people of color will continue to plunge.

Consolidation has also long run rampant in the cable and broadband industries, where companies like Comcast would rather spend billions to kill off their competitors than improve their service or build out their networks to unserved and underserved communities.

The FCC and the Justice Department should protect our ability to connect, communicate and organize for social change by blocking dangerous mergers and boosting diverse media ownership.

New Yorker bodyshames Trump?

Remember the kids' story about "The emperor's new clothes?"
An emperor was duped into buying "clothes" that only smart people could see. Being too proud to admit he might not be smart, he claims he can see the "clothes" and buys them. There was, of course, no clothes. He goes on a parade where everyone sees him marching naked.

What will happen now?!
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/17/us/politics/cambridge-analytica-trump-campaign.html?ncid=newsltushpmgnews__TheMorningEmail__031918

From the HuffPost: THE FACEBOOK SCANDAL DEEPENS "Disturbing undercover interviews with executives from U.K.-based political research firm Cambridge Analytica have revealed admissions of bribery, entrapment and the use of sex workers to sway political elections around the world, according to an investigative series airing Monday." U.K. authorities have taken over the investigation into Cambridge Analytica. The blowback is "pummeling" Facebook's stock. Facebook's data security chief is also leaving over a dispute on the handling of "Russian ploys." And turns out it's harder to delete your Facebook account than you'd think.
