Enforce the Anti-Trust legislation of our country onto these companies GE, NewsCorp, Disney, Viacom, Time Warner, and CB

Created by K.P. on May 13, 2014

GE, News Corp, Disney, Viacom, Time Warner, and CBS control about 90% of all media consumed by American citizens and by doing so unfairly create an advantage for themselves in virtually any market they choose. Disbanding these companies from their now 6 down to 100 would be trivial and open the up to many more competitors within our own country. Viacom is a great example of the power each of these media giants have. Viacom alone owns MTV, Nick JR, BET, CMT, and Paramount Pictures. Those companies alone gross enough money to pay their employees $1.15 more than minimum wage and still total millions if not billions of dollars higher than their competitors. A disbandment of these companies through anti trust laws would provide a more open and stable economy for all to participate in.
