  12. It seems that everyone is talking about individual reporting biases rather
  13. than corporate "biases" that are much more powerful.  Do you realize that over
  14. half the media sources in the U.S. are owned by around 25 corporations?  In a
  15. situation like this, objectivity is bound to lessen.  I would suggest that
  16. anyone interested read a bood called "The Media Monopoly" by Ben Bagdikian.
