Media Domination

"Murdoch is an object lesson in the dangers of concentrated cross-border power. Such power is always problematic because it is apt to reduce diversity, squeeze out the regional and local, and stifle dissent "

A fantastic summation from the Guardian Unlimited website. The article written by Peter Wilby, former editor of the New Statesman and Independent on Sunday, illustrates very clearly the impact a monolith like Rupert Murdoch has on each and every part of the media he chooses to dominate.
