Media Ownership

Oligopoly - Means a very small elite owning a large media global company. It is a market form in which a market or industry is dominated by a small number of sellers (oligopolists).


IPC - Largest market media share.


Synergy - To market a sell a media output - A particular film/celebrity.


The potential disadvantages for the consumer:

Higher prices - Because the market is owned by the same people.

- HEADLINE: Prices too full; just like the pages.

Similar stories, layouts and advertising - Boring?

- HEADLINE: Baa baa baa; Boring.


Audience are seen as both consumers of media products and producers.
