This has to be one of the most politically biased topics when it comes to the media. You never hear these issues when the Republicans are in office. Of course the idea isn’t wrong, it’s just the timing is predictale (Republicans not in office and it’s almost election time).
The media is mostly owned by 6 conglomerates that are ran by billionaires who fund the right. It’s predictable because it’s by design. We are basically back in the gilded age.
It’s a terrible visualization, there’s no tangling. Categories like sports are drawn as a point, and all sports media companies have a line drawn to that point. If you look only at the blue and white parts, not the gray, it’s not tangled.
It also only shows five big companies, when it should also include News Corp, iheartmedia, Warner, Sinclair, Hearst, etc.
Do you have a source for this? I’ve seen charts like these, but they never have a date on them, so I can’t tell if they’re still accurate, or out of date.
Forbes. I didn’t link the article because it’s paywalled (I get it with my Apple News) and I thought this answered the question. I didn’t bookmark the article to post again.
With a little reverse-image-searching, it also looks like it’s from 2018. I like this graphic, I’d love to see a more recent version of this. For instance, I think Disney aquired FOX in 2019, and this chart still shows it being owned by 20th Century Fox.

Interesting, is there a list of these companies and which brands they own?
Wow, that’s a lot more entangled than I thought it was going to be. Thank you for this information.
Bleacher Report has connections? I just thought they were some blog summarizing WWE back when I cared about pro-wrestling.
“Absorb to control” seems to be the motto

Yeah, a lot the good articles I found were pay walled and I don’t like responding to people with info they may not be able to access.
The irony of omitting that liberal media channels suffer from exactly the same issue.
The billionaires set the talking points and all other media is forced to address it or get accused of covering up “issues”.
