My predictions for the Big Six except one, which was a guess. Most of the companies didn't surprise me at all, probably because I already knew that there were only a few, and I knew the biggest 4. The Big Six are the Big Six because they make a lot of money. They buy out everything they can that makes any amount of profit, and collect little corporations. They control what those little corporations do like poor little action figures.
I can't think of any major advantages to there being only six big companies except it makes it easier to know who to blame - but the disadvantages are endless. Having only six big media corporations makes it that much harder to get solid, unbiased information.
It stood out to me how much people really knew about where their information is coming from every day. Of course it's not right that it happens, but it does, and as long as they have the money the have the power and no one can really stop them but each other (but then it'll be down to one).
