| dc.description.abstract | According to Edwin Baker, the greatest threat to freedom of expression is the possibility that private
entrepreneurs will always tend to monopolies the marketplace of ideas in the name of economic
efficiency and private profit (Baker 2007). The mass media industry is crucial for the creation of
reliable information, knowledge, ideology and propaganda in contemporary capitalist societies. As
Strinati, (1995) argues, its structure of ownership and control are equally crucial. Marxist critical
studies claim that the mass media assume an all encompassing conspiracy by monopolist (Gomery
2006). Political economists like Golding and Murdock (2001) see the relationship between ownership
and control as an indirect and mediated one | en_US |
