ENTERTAINMENT MEDIA COMPANIES (MICHELLE ALVISO)

ENTERTAINMENT MEDIA COMPANIES

• A media conglomerate, media group, or media institution is a company that owns numerous companies in various mass media,  television, radio, publishing, motion picture, theme park and the Internet. According to the magazine Nation, "Media conglomerates strive for policies that facilitate their control of the markets around the world.

1. Everyone dreams about working among the hottest stars out there and jobs at media companies are frequently glamorized in movies and on TV.
2. To be sure, there's a lot of perks when it comes to working at these media powerhouses. But even the best, most glamorous media jobs have their downfalls.
3. As of 2007, it has been questioned whether media companies actually are unrelated. The practice of conglomeration has been used for the sharing of various kinds of content such as news, video and music. The media sector's tendency to consolidate causes formerly diversified companies to appear less diverse as a result. Therefore, the term media group may also be applied, however, it has not so far replaced the more traditional term.
