One of the memorable quote from the movie The Dictator is when the General sarcastically try to convince Americans about the supposed benefits of dictatorships:
How true is the bolded accusation? At least about the major traditional media (e.g. television and big newspapers), how true is the accusation that they are ultimately owned by a very small group of people?
Im guessing not true at all. I also assume the term “media” here is being used in an old fashioned pre internet sense. Taking no account of internet news sites, blogs and such.
Not true. It is at least five people and their families.

Keith Olbermann?
Or any phrase, for that matter.
I believe that the fact that the public is aware of all the other things being insinuated at, like torturing prisoners, is a pretty good indicator that even if the media was being controlled by one person, that one person isn’t the dictator of the nation nor in his pocket.
Everybody knows those cutters are nothing but trouble. Especially that one that talks Italian and rides that bike everywhere.
Almost none of it true… but Sacha Baron Cohen thinks all of it is true, and that he made a devastatingly witty satirical condemnation of the USA.
There is no such possibility of a case, assuming it would be an extraordinarily hard job coordinating all media outlets with your beliefs.
