Selected fiscal data are reported for these three plus two other media conglomerates to offer a comparison of revenues. Each corporation is then described, including the types of companies they own. The effects of media conglomerates are then reported and discussed. The writer comments on the role of the FCC in their growth and demonstrates a conflict of interest.
