Rotunda Project Response
I really enjoyed the project of media consolidation. Demonstrating the change in network ownership and who really owns the channels was pretty unsettling. In a market where only 5 or 6 massive corporations own tens to hundreds of channels, there is no other viewpoints besides those of the owners. It also gets way too commercially driven, but the interest of their sponsors before that of the public. When all of the T.V providers offer hundreds of channels, for all we know we could only be getting a couple hundred. If one company owns 1/5 of those channels, we only receive what the company wants us to, so the themes and shows may be very identical. Consolidation of media is an issue all must be aware about, and I feel like most don't take the issue as seriously as it should be taken. Thank you to whoever did this to spread awareness of the issue
