CNN is owned by AT&T, MSNBC is ultimately owned by Comcast and ABC by the Walt Disney Company. These are very powerful, huge corporations but probably (apart from Walt Disney) very few people have ever heard about those names. R.L. Stephenson, J. Stankey, B.L. Roberts, M. Cavanagh, D.L. Cohen, B. Eger and B. Chapek are some of the key ppl but again nobody probably has even heard those names and it doesn't matter that much. It is no longer a question of a single billionaire or tycoon, big corporations are controlled by groups of people, and if a CEO or chairman goes he will replaced but the mammoth organization will go on, promoting its own interests and if those interests don't coincide with those of the people or nations where they operate... oh well I checked it recently, there are about 50 corporations that have a yearly revenue of over 100 billion $ and about 60 countries with a GDP of over 100 billion $... that alone tells the power of those organizations. They are states in the state, or rather states across the states because they operate in many countries. This should give some food for thought.
