<<Barry Diller was on PBS's Bill Moyer's NOW >> What I liked about that was the syntax of a make-it-happen guy like Diller. He said simply the new oligopoly has "too few voices", what a great phrase. Then said the web is as yet mostly two-dimensional, hoping the controlling ownership of the satellite/cable pipes won't cause the web to be absorbed like the broadcast media. Obviously to Diller, that's what they have in mind, complete control over 90% of the media. And now upcoming Bush PRIMARY campaign, which would be unecessary since Junior's the only candidate -- will be $200 MILLION, enough to suck the air out of all other media buys, and make this handful of propaganda-machinery owners another few bucks. A taste of the ONE BILLION + they'll pocket in the general election of '04. A sweet deal. Pass the lobbyist/criminal dollars along to the broadcast/criminals to get yourself in charge of all payoffs and murders, a Twilight Zone episode of the Sopranos. Musselini was one of the most famous editors and journalists of pre-war Italy before he consolidated his power and co-opted the largest businesses to establish the fascisti. Hitler admired his use and control of the media, and copied that and extended it. Alan Dulles came back from his OSS post in Germany most excited by the way Hitler was able to keep the German people on board through media propaganda even in late 1944 when their cities were being absolutely demolished and they were clearly losing. It is said in several books on the subject that Dulles was most impressed by that feature of Hitler's Germany and studied that carefully, along with bringing many of the best and the brightest of the propaganda agents over. I'd just be satisfied with knowing every gov't dollar that goes into the media, and making it a felony to covertly influence the media in any way with public funds. Meanwhile we've got the net and meetings. At least until they control the net and ban public meetings.
