| | The Stupefaction of a Nation, by Manuel Valenzuela |
 | | Corporate media is but a business where profit is king and where the seeking of customers ñ other corporations buying ad space ñ is of primary importance. | | | Revenue and profit, corporate growth and power, executive pay and ego, these are all determined by us, the masses, and helps explain why the oligarchy has decided to invest and take an interest in all forms of media that reaches and influences us. | | | Corporate media, an extension of its mother company, reports pro-business, pro-corporate and anti-labor positions on a constant basis. |

| | Large, Corporate-Owned Media are "Free" Trade Proponents - Global Issues |
| | In the increasingly globalized world where some transnational corporations wield a lot of political power as well, there are legitimate questions about whether private corporations should also be held accountable to the public via access to their information. | | | Wherever media is being corporatized and owned by global corporations, the same issues are ocurring. | | | The current form of corporate globalization has been criticized for increasing the vast inequalities around the world, including in the richest nations in the world. |

| | The Black Commentator - The Awesome Destructive Power of the Corporate Power Media - Issue 75 |
| | For all politically useful purposes, the monopolization of US media is now complete, in that the corporate owners and managers of the dominant organs are interchangeable and indistinguishable, sharing a common mission and worldview. | | | Media companies act in effective unison on matters of importance to the larger corporate class. | | | The corporate media has the power of self-fulfilling prophesy, and they know it. |

| | The Black Commentator - Treat Corporate Media Like the Enemy - and no free pass for Black radio - Issue 40 |
| | It is impossible to exaggerate the consequences that flow from corporate monopolization of media. | | | However, actual coverage, the essential product, is governed by corporate imperatives. | | | It is the reason they spend huge sums on promotions to convince the public that they are "on your side." This investment is wasted when it is dramatically proven that community accountability is a myth. |

| | Why Media Ownership Matters |
| | A blow against media ownership consolidation — now or in the future — will have far-reaching implications, as critical information gains exposure to a caring, active public. | | | We don't need government censors, because we have corporations sanitizing the news. | | | One answer lies in the corporations themselves — the ones that own the major news outlets. |

| | Now we are buying into the very paradigm of a "war on terror" that our government – with staggering banality, soaring hubris, and stunning bravado – employs to elicit public acquiescence while offering no criterion of success or failure, no knowledge of the cost, and no measure of democratic accountability. | | | One of the company's founders was on record as saying that sometimes corporations need to resort to unconventional resources, including "using deceit", to defend themselves. | | | If the public and government regulators had known over the years what the industry was keeping secret about the health risks of its products, America's laws and regulations governing chemical manufacturing would have been far more protective of human health than they were. |
